Anne Crozier Seltzer was born December 18, 1932, in Davenport, Iowa, daughter of Bruce and Esther (Bartholomew) Crozier. She was raised in the Davenport and Clinton areas where she was a member of the Girl Scouts of America. She won a prize for collecting the most newspapers during World War II in a Scout drive. Anne was an avid canoeist and taught canoeing and swimming for the Clinton Red Cross during high school.

Following graduation from high school, Anne attended Carleton College in Northfield, Minnesota, where her interests were Spanish and Math. During summers, she worked in the research lab at Clinton Corn Processing which later became part of ADM.

She met David Seltzer in the Carletonian office on campus and they had their first date at the Carleton Tea Room. The couple married on November 17, 1956, in the bride’s home in Clinton. Anne and David spent all of their married life in Waterloo where she worked for the Boy Scouts of America office and he worked for the Waterloo Courier. The Courier’s policy at the time was, “newswriters are not newsmakers” meaning they were not permitted to participate in community activities, so they chose to support school activities and the YMCA. Through the years, Anne enjoyed canoeing, cooking, sewing, gardening, reading, and above all, loving her family.

Anne passed away at home on Friday, June 9, 2017, at the age of 84 years.

She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband; her sister, Patricia; and her brother, George.

Anne is survived by her daughter, Barbara (Daniel) Tako of Hugo, Minnesota; and two granddaughters, Emily and Sarah Tako.

Anne blessed her family with her love and patience and will be deeply missed. Special thanks to her physical trainer Suzan Egan and the folks at The Homestead of Maplewood.

Memorials may be directed to the YMCA.
