Obituary of Anne Crine

Anne Crine, of Matamoras, PA, daughter of Michael and Mary Ricciardi, passed away on March 13, 2025, in her home with her family by her side.

Anne’s greatest pleasure in life was seeing her grandchildren and great-grandchildren grow. She loved all the family gatherings and would simply "light up" when she was with everyone.

She first worked in the Grand Union and later in the Delaware Valley school cafeteria, where she was everyone's favorite lunch lady.

Anne married the love of her life, her “sweetheart” Drew Crine, on June 20, 1948. She had missed him every single day since his passing in 2014.

In addition to her parents and husband, she was predeceased in life by her great-grandson Steven Quinn, and her brother Donald Ricciardi.

Anne is survived by three children, Donna Knight (Rich), Mary Jacobs (Ferris), and Michael Crine. Five grandchildren, Heather Quinn (Jeff), Amanda Kranik (Scott), Sharon Jacobs, Laura Jacobs (Dan), and Michael Rossi. Her great-grandchildren, Meagan, Colin, Brianna, Katrina, William, Liam, Shelby, and Jeremy.

This very special lady will be greatly missed.
