She was born Feb. 19, 1941, to Philip and Anna Schlagel. Her life as a child on the farm in Froid was of humble beginnings. She married Louie Anvik and they started their life together on the farm west of Sidney and had four children. They planted wheat and tended a small herd of cattle. She was diligent with canning almost everything she could grow, sewed most of the family’s clothes and raised chickens, ducks and geese. As the family grew, the old two-bedroom farmhouse wasn’t enough room and the family lived in town for 10 years before a new home was built in 1977.
She was active in Women’s Circle at Pella, Women
