Anna Rea Kennedy, 81, of Zellwood, Florida passed away peacefully on April 21, 2026 in Orlando, Florida.

Born on January 15, 1945 in Statesboro, Georgia, Anna was the beloved daughter of Nathan and Quida Mae Foss. She grew up in Statesboro, Georgia attended Marvin Pittman High School where she was a cheerleader and went on to graduate beautician school and became a hairstylist. Anna held other jobs throughout her life and her last career was being a greeter at Mount Dora Walmart, bringing smiles to everyone she encountered.

Anna was known for her passionate faith in Jesus. She had a deep love for her family, friends, animals, being by the ocean and music. She spent many years roller skating and bowling in her free time and enjoyed board games, playing cards and brought continuous joy to those around her by being humble, kind, loving and always willing to help someone in need.

She is survived by her daughter and son in law, Mark and Denise Sullivan of Oakland, Florida and her sister, June Foss Darley of Clermont, Florida.

A private memorial service will be held by the family based on her wishes.

Anna will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by all who knew her. One of her favorite sayings was “sweet dreams” and now we wish the same for her.

Thessalonians 4:13-14

Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope. For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him.
