Anna was born December 8, 1947, in Siculiana, Sicily, to Giusseppe and Paolina Guadagnano, and came to the United States at the age of 6. She worked over 20 years for Wilbur-Ellis before retiring in 2016. Anna enjoyed baking, quilting and RV travelling, but most importantly she was a strong, independent woman who was deeply loved by her family and friends.

Survivors include her husband of 34 years, Dwayne Davis; her children, Paula Shaw (Eddie), Michael Rogers (Courtney), Mike Davis (Jackie), Bob Davis (Debbie), Shan Davis (Jennifer), Sherry Hall (Todd), Brad Davis (Carrie); her grandchildren, Taylor and Natalie Shaw, Aaron Davis, Kristin, Dalton, Hunter, and Cade Davis, Collin, Rebecca, and Jake Hall, Clint, Rachel, and Rhett Davis; her siblings, Teresa Martino (John), Vincie Guadagnano, Anthony Guadagnano (Debbie); sisters-in-law,  Joyce Ballard, Sonia Ferguson (Barry), and Alona Fordyce (Carl); and many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
