Anna M. Day

PITTSBURG, NH – Mrs. Anna M. Day, 56, of Pittsburg, NH, passed away Thursday morning, August 30, 2012, at the Catholic Medical Center in Manchester, NH. Anna was born on April 4, 1956, in Springfield, Mass., the only daughter to Peter and June (DeGray) Bruno. She was educated in Springfield, attending Catholic school for 12 years, where she most certainly gave the nuns a run for their money. Upon turning 18, Anna vacationed in Pittsburg and met Gerald Day. She fell in love with his animals, the area, and eventually Gerald, too, and she never left. They soon married and began to raise their family. Anna was also one who cared for others, and it showed in what she did. She worked for many years as an EMT and volunteer with the Pittsburg Ambulance Corps, and she later became a LNA and worked at the UCVH. She also cared for local seniors in their homes. In addition to that, Anna also helped Gerald run his towing business for seventeen years. She absolutely cherished her grandchildren, who will always know her as “Gigi” and “Grammy.” She completely spoiled them at every chance. A larger-than-life personality, Anna had the biggest heart and would give anyone whatever she could, even if she was mad at you. Anna is survived by her son, Michael Day and a daughter, Heather Day Holt and husband, John, all of Dummer, NH; her parents, Peter and June Bruno of Pittsburg; and four grandchildren, Aryonna and Jacob Day, and Harrison and Patrick Holt. At the specific request of the family there are no calling hours. A “Celebration of Life” will be held on Saturday, Sept. 8, 2012, at the Guides’ Lot on Beach Road in Pittsburg at 11 a.m. As an expression of sympathy, and in an effort to assist in helping convert part of the family property in Dummer to a suitable living space for Anna’s parents, friends are asked if they have a skill or trade that may be utilized. Other expressions of sympathy in memory of Anna may be made to a fund established for this reason at the First Colebrook Bank, c/o Rosemary Mulliken, 132 Main Street, Colebrook, NH 03576. Condolences may be offered to the family on-line by going to www.jenkinsnewman.com. Funeral arrangements are under the direction of Jenkins & Newman Funeral Home, Colebrook, NH.
