Anna Mae Martini, 93, of Uhrichsville, passed away on Tuesday, March 21, 2023, at Park Village Health Care Center in Dover, after a long period of declining health. Born August 26, 1929 in Mill Township near Uhrichsville, she was the last surviving child of the late Fortunato David “Frank” and Enrica “Henrietta” (Dallago) Martini, having been preceded in death by her sisters, Mary, Lena, Ines, and Blanche Martini, and brothers and sisters-in-law, John and Edith Martini, Joe and Marian Martini, and Francis and Carol Martini.

A woman of deep faith and commitment to her church, Anna Mae was a lifelong member of Immaculate Conception Church in Dennison and a 1947 graduate of St. Mary’s High School. She faithfully served her parish as an active member of the Altar Society, a Eucharistic Minister, a dedicated Sacristan, and as a volunteer at the annual parish festival, working at the candy booth with her sisters. She was an administrative assistant for many years in the local clay industry at H. K. Porter and Larson’s Clay Pipe Company, before working in admissions at Twin City Hospital until her retirement in her 70s. She was an avid fan of the Cleveland Indians and looked forward to the start of each new season.
