Anita Louise New

Anita Louise New passed on to her eternal home on Tuesday July 26, 2022 after a hard fought 6 year battle with Alzheimers disease.

Anita was born October 31, 1939 in Graham, Texas, the first child to Adele Rainey Cook and Lawson L. Cook.  She went to school in Graham Texas until her Senior year when she moved to Odessa, Texas.  It was there that she met her husband of 63 years, Kenneth Joe New.

Anita and Ken spent 63 years together in Texas, Missouri, Georgia, Alabama and finally back to Granbury, Texas after retirement.

She was a very successful realtor in Guntersville, Alabama for many years, but her favorite past time, when she wasn’t with her family, was being on the golf course as much as possible, she was proud to be a past Women’s Club Champion of both Pecan Plantation and Nut Cracker Golf Course in Granbury, Texas.

Anita is survived by her husband, Kenneth New; her son, Joe New and wife, Sharon; her daughter, Melissa Cone and husband, Steve; her sister, Kathy Cook and brothers, Buddy Cook and Ken Cook. She was a loving Nana to 9 grandchildren, Britton New, Jessica New, Brock New, Kimberly Clements, Matthew Clements, Darby Cone, Abbey Cone, Luke Cone, Arly Cone and 8 great-grandchildren.

She was dearly loved by them all and will be forever missed.

Service:  10:00 A.M., Friday, August 12, 2022 in Biggers Funeral Chapel
