Anna Marie Luschenat passed away peacefully on, May 23, 2026 surrounded by her loving family in home hospice. She was the devoted wife of William Frederick "Bill" Luschenat who passed in 2018, for over 70 years.

Anna was born March 18, 1927 in Naugatuck, daughter of the late Frederick and Ottille (Cabel) Semrow. She was a graduate of Naugatuck High School. She worked briefly in the banking sector.  Her main importance was to take care of her boys.  She was a den leader for the cub scouts and did many projects and trips to local venues for the cubs to see. She also would pick up a baseball glove and have a catch with the boys and even pitch batting practice to them.  She was an avid gardener. She has many flower gardens with iris, Japanese iris and many other flowers. She grew and canned vegetables in one of the gardens. She was also an avid quilter and even taught a quilting class for years at the senior center.  Once a year, the Prospect Congregational Church would have a bazaar and she would display all of her work.  All the pews and walls of the sanctuary would be covered with her works.  Many visitors wanted to purchase them but she would never sell them. She took up jigsaw puzzle making and worked with Jeff on over 150 puzzles over the past few years.  She was an avid UCONN woman's basketball fan.
