Anna Evelyn (Casey) Bain, 85, passed from this life July 12, 2026 at Appleton City Manor Nursing Home in Appleton City, Missouri.
Anna was born March 1, 1941 in Rockville, Missouri, the daughter of Verlyn N. and Ruth E. (Myers) Casey. She attended elementary school in Rockville and later at Hudson School, graduating from Appleton City High School in 1958. Anna met Donald G. Bain not long after graduation and they were married June 13, 1959 at her home near Rockville. They were blessed with three daughters and one son.
Anna was a busy homemaker and wife for many years. She also took in laundry and ironing for elderly neighbors. When the children were older, she began working for the Appleton City nursing home doing laundry, and later she worked at Mott Meat Co. in Rockville, doing laundry and cleaning there until they closed their doors. Anna also helped out at the Heiman’s gas station in Rockville for several years.
Anna served several years as president of the Rockville School PTA. She was active in helping at the school while her children were growing up. She and Donald loved to go dancing together. She liked country music and they often went to Monegaw on weekends in the years there was a live band. When Don was worn out, she’d grab one of her girlfriends and keep on going! They also liked to go to Branson a couple times a week to dance or just listen to the music. Anna also liked to roller-skate and often went to skate at the city hall building in Rockville. She was a hardworking and also a fun loving lady who will be greatly missed.
