Anna C. Giles
Well, if there was a version of Jim Carrey that was short half-Mexican female, it was Anna C. Giles.
Anna was born on December 18, 1987, the baby sister to 3 older siblings and parents Mike & Maria Giles. We should have known by her first years of hyperactive silliness and ability to nap even behind the couch… that she would end up a vivacious varsity athlete, an avid adult tennis player, and yesss you may have even woke up a few mornings wondering how Anna ended up on YOUR couch! She loved to break an awkward moment with something ridiculous to cause an outburst of laughter but if she didn’t have her brows, mascara, and foundation on… she was no where to be found haha!
Anna had a drive for fairness and transparency in this world, and in turn prioritized providing that same space to those she loved, as both her gift and her krytonite! She often said “When it’s my time, I already know I’ll go out over something silly or a total fluke.”
And here we are… a stomach bug then all of a sudden, she didn’t wake up the next morning.
The coolest daughter, sister, aunt, granddaughter, and friend… Anna was a vibrant, single 36 year old… that left the room on the ultimate mic drop. Proceeding her in death is her nephew Malaki, Dad Mike Giles, grandparents Don Giles, Alfonzo & Andrea Barron. Survived is her mother Maria Giles, grandmother Ginny Giles, siblings Jen (and Troy) Bullock, Dave (and Christine) Giles, Allen (and Ashley) Giles and a slew of nieces and nephews, aunts, uncles, cousins, and a nationwide span of friendships.
As expected, she WILL BE LATE to her own funeral no matter when we schedule it but here are the details. Visitation will be held from 4:00 – 8:00 PM, Tuesday, April 23, 2024, at the Robinson-Walker Funeral Home & Crematory, 501 West St., Genoa, Ohio. A funeral Mass will be celebrated at 11:00 AM, Wednesday, April 24, 2024, at Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church, 204 S. Main Street, Genoa. Anna’s family are planning to celebrate her life with an outdoor shindig, June 1, 2024, in her Elmore backyard.
