  Anna C. Kotten, 98, of Norwalk passed to her eternal rest on Tuesday, Aug. 10, 2004, at Rolling Hills Rehabilitation Center in Sparta, Wis. She was born Feb. 14, 1906, to Lewis and Mary (Ewelt) Wacker on St. Mary's Ridge, rural Norwalk. On May 16, 1926, she married Hugo Kotten at the St. Mary's Ridge Catholic Church. Anna was recently featured in the February 2004 Monroe County Senior Sampler. Her life was chronologically reviewed from childhood, school days at the Catholic school on St. Mary's Ridge, her marriage, the birth of five children and all the challenges of being a farm wife and mother. In addition, other jobs included work at the tobacco plants in Cashton, Wis., and Sparta, Tillman Produce in Wilton, Wis., and later retiring at age 83 from Kotten Enterprises in Norwalk. Anna was a highly skilled seamstress and enjoyed crocheting, bingo and playing cards. Family and religion were always an important part of Anna's life and are her legacy to those who will sadly miss her. She is survived by four children, Arleen (John) Andringa of Morton, Wash.; Janice (James) Freit of Bangor, Wis., Vernie ( Sandy) Kotten of Kenosha, Wis., and Alice (Harland) Ruhland of Plain, Wis.; one sister, Veronica Schroeder; 20 grandchildren; 31 great-grandchildren; six great-great-grandchildren; plus many other relatives and friends.

A Mass of Christian Burial is scheduled for 11 a.m. Friday, Aug. 13, at St. Augustine's Catholic Church in Norwalk. The Rev. Eric Berns will officiate. Burial will follow in St. Augustine Catholic Cemetery. Family and friends are invited for visitation on from 5 to 7 p.m. today, Aug. 12, at the church, with a rosary prayer service at 6:45 p.m., and on Friday from 10 a.m. until the time of mass.
