Resident Spotlight “Annedore K.”
We would like to take a moment to honor Annedore K., a beloved member of our Aravilla family. Born in Berlin, Germany, in 1940, Annedore graduated from high school around 1958. Shortly thereafter, she met and married her husband, and together they welcomed their daughter, Sandra. While Annedore’s family remained in Germany, she embarked on a new journey, relocating to Florida in 1960, where she quickly learned English. Her adventurous spirit led her to explore various locations, including Turkey, New Mexico, Ohio, and Virginia. But her wanderlust did not stop there; Annedore has also traveled to Italy, France, Bora Bora, and even attended the Cannes Music Festival in Europe. Her passion for travel is truly inspiring. In 2005, Annedore retired from Raymond James Financial after 14 years of dedicated service as an insurance case manager. Interestingly, her daughter follows in her footsteps and currently works at the same company. Prior to her time at Raymond James, Annedore worked in the jewelry industry. Outside of her travels, Annedore enjoys a variety of hobbies, inducing swimming, exploring the great outdoors through nature park walks, and cooking. One of her most cherished traditions is preparing homemade red cabbage, German potato salad, and dumplings for Christmas celebrations with her family. Additionally, Annedore and Sandra have created lasting memories through their Easter picnics at John Chestnut Park and frequent visits to Anna Maria Island for long beach walks.
We are delighted to welcome Annedore to the Aravilla Clearwater Family! Her radiant smile is sure to brighten our community, especially during our exciting bus excursions. Join us in extending a warm welcome to Annedore as she embarks on this journey with us.
