Carter (Louise) of Lexington South Carolina; one sister, Cheryl Carter Hunter of Milton, Florida and many nieces and nephews. Anita was predeceased by her parents and two of her brothers, Auburn H.

The family wishes to express their appreciation to the staff of Lexington Medical Center Extended Care, Lexington Medical Center, and Agape Hospice House of Lexington for the care she received in each of those facilities.
