Anneliese Z. Bovino left this planet January 28, 2014 from Capital Health (Helene Fuld) of Trenton, N.J., at age 85.

Born Anneliese Ellen Argentina Ziegler to German parents in Argentina, then raised in a convent in Paraguay, she arrived in the U.S. in 1949 thanks to the Kelly family of Princeton.  She lived there and then Lawrenceville for many years.  She worked hard at varied jobs, notably Verbeyst Cleaners in town, and was an excellent seamstress.

Married in 1951 and raised 2 great children (you do know who's writing this?)  and worked til age 70.  In her later years she loved going to the big flea markets and yard sales, and knitting.  She loved the farmers market and bus trips to Atlantic City; especially the winning ones.  She will miss all her friends there, you know who you are.

Predeceased by her husband of 35 years, William M. Bovino, she leaves behind a son, William M. II (Mickey), of Lawrenceville, a disowned daughter, whereabouts unknown; sister-in-law Lucille Schrader of Beaverton, Ore, adopted daughter Debra Dow-Knapp, also of Lawrence, brother-in-law Bob Bryant of Virginia; dear friend Priscilla Mazzella of Colorado and seven beloved nieces and nephews in several states; another dear friend, Belle Rhodes of Nazareth, P.A., and many other friends and customers.

She was loved and always gave back much more in return.  Her departure leaves a void that can never be filled.

Per her wishes, she is to be cremated and interred at Princeton Memorial Park.  There will be no calling hours, and burial will be private.
