Anne M. Gobel

January 18, 1928 - March 12, 2012

Anne was born in Watsonville, California to “Nat” and Alice Pardee Crouch. She passed away peacefully in Castro Valley, California, on March 12, 2012. She is survived by her husband of 66 years, Chuck Gobel, their daughter Peggy Mullins (Dublin), and sons Richard (Linda) Gobel of Fremont and Jim (Patti) Gobel of Spooner, Wisconsin, grandchildren, Scott, Jason (Trish), Justin (Cathy), Jerrod (Jennifer), Nathan and Katie. She was great-grandma to Caitlin, Travis, Olivia, Alexis, Amber, Jesel, Avery and Morgan. She is pre-deceased by her parents, brothers Nathaniel and Philip Crouch and her grandson, Jeff Anthony. Her sister, Karen Brouhard passed away on April 3rd, 2012. Anne’s first job was as a nurse’s aide at the Oakland Naval Hospital where she met her future husband. She was also an excellent bookkeeper and worked for Trans Ocean Airlines, Busy Bee Income Tax and finally at W.R.Grace & Co. where she retired after 26 years. Anne and Chuck did extensive traveling in the 80’s & 90’s to Alaska, numerous countries in Europe, Mexico, the Virgin Islands and Caribbean to name a few. Anne enjoyed her senior years attending her great grand-kids sporting events and traveling to different venues to watch Jeff race his Sportsman Late Model car. Anne was an expert seamstress, loved to crochet, knit, embroider and work in her beautiful garden. In the past few years it was hard to get around so she spent her days reading and watching every tennis match that was shown on TV, and rooting for Mark Martin of NASCAR. Anne’s smile and her caring ways will be deeply missed. In lieu of flowers the family requests donations to Tony LaRussa’s ARF, 2890 Mitchell Dr., Walnut Creek, Ca 94598 or to a charity of your choice. The family wishes to thank St. Rose Hospital and St. John Kronstadt Skilled Nursing Center for taking wonderful care of Anne. Private burial will take place at the Hamby Cemetery, Watsonville, California, on May 27th, 2012.
