Larson Distinguished Volunteer Service Award in 1994 for her outstanding dedication and leadership. Most will remember her from her time at Channahon, Jr. High where she met and befriended many colleagues, parents and students. Anna Mae genuinely loved life, as evidenced by her tendency to sing, dance and joke. She was always the first to lend a helping hand, a shoulder to cry on or a sanctuary for those needing a friend. When she wasn't being an amazing mother, wife and friend she loved fishing, sports cars / road racing, Basset Hounds and the occasional trip to the casino with her sister Margaret Dockendorf. She was preceded in death by her parents, Aunts Annie and Mamie, brother, John Dockendorf and her beloved daughter Miranda Mary Frattini for whom she was an unwavering advocate. She always made sure that Mandy had the opportunity to do similar things as able-bodied individuals and was happy.

Private Services and Interment were held at Woodlawn Memorial Park Cemetery, Joliet. Arrangements entrusted to The Maple Funeral Home, Channahon.
