Our Anna passed away yesterday after an unexpected battle with a very aggressive cancer. She was one of the kindest souls you can ever have had the good fortune to meet, and we are sad beyond measure that she had to leave us now. Â Anna was “mom” to many of us out here on the wharf; she kept us in food and cookies, she took care of our pets when we were away, she kept us on the straight and narrow (mostly), and made sure the boats got out on time. Â There really aren’t words for how badly we are going to miss her. Â It is hard to imagine the wharf without Anna.
Aloha and farewell Anna. Â Our thoughts and hearts go with you. Love, The whole wharf gang |

Logan and I will miss her too. She was always so nice to my son when we came to the shop.
Such sad news.Thoughts and prayers to Anna’s family…she left way too soon..The wharf will not be the same without her presence and I am blessed to have known her.
We will miss her,
She was always so helpful and friendly, we had no idea. Our best to her family and the wharf gang,
Anna will be greatly missed by my kids and I. She was one of a kind and always took the time to update us on fishing or just say hi. She made visiting the wharf feel like we were one of the gang.
I’m saddened by her passing. She was always friendly and helpful. Best wishes to her family and friends
Anna will be greatly missed!!! We always looked forward to seeing her at the bait shop when we were in town, she was always the sweetest!!!
Anna will always be with us in our hearts as she gave all of hers to so many. Annas legacy of kindness and compassion to all will never be forgotten.
EVERYONE THAT HANGS OUT AT THE WHARF WILL MISS HER KIND MANNER. A WONDERFUL PERSON WHO HAD PATIENCE WITH ALL. MY REGARDS TO HER FAMILY.
Anna was a very nice lady and I am soo sad to hear she had to battle that disease. With Anna looking over us, I bet we have some great fishing this year. My thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends.

We’re so sad about this. She was such a special lady and I doubt our 4 legged family members will ever stop looking for her. Our sympathies to the entire family, including her pier family.
We are so sad to hear this news. Anna was so kind to all of us, and the dogs will sorely miss her (as well as the treats she kept on hand to give to them). Our hearts go out to all who knew her, and especially to the wharf gang.
oh man, this is just awful news. I live right up the hill and the wharf wont be the same without her. so sorry to read this…
Last year we did a cancer event (Pay It Forward Paddle) for a friend in SC, and you all were kind enough to offer us a free boat for safety purposes for the paddle, think we owe you one. Well be in contact. We’d like to honor her at this years event.
Brent I think that is an awesome idea. Please let us know if there’s anything you need from us to make that happen.
I will try to stop by saturday to chat about it, the event for 2011 is in July.
If i cant get there Saturday, it might be next weekend.. But I will be by!
A wounderfull light from this earth has dimmed, but not gone out, her love for all true an kind will be burning forever. Thank you Anna, from this crazy portugese fisherman, we will miss you all.
So sad to hear of Anna’s passing
We’ve been renting boats there for many years and she was definately one of the highlights of our day. I would tell my husband to hurry up, don’t want to be late, Anna will get on us if we are! We will miss her very much…

My Deepest Regards from myself and my Family to Anna’s Family and friends at the Wharf
The dozen or so times that me and my sons have visited the Capitola pier for fishing or walking. We have stoped at the store and always been greeted with a warm smile by Anna. She had always offered great advise for fishing with no hesitation unlike some places. That is why we keep comming back !! We will miss her to. Best wishes to all on the wharf who knew her well. alexander sigal
