In Loving Memory of Ann Arena
It is with profound sadness that we remember Ann Arena, 76, of Caernarvon Township, Berks County, who tragically passed away yesterday in Exeter Township, Pennsylvania. Ann’s life, marked by warmth, kindness, and a spirit that touched those around her, was cut short in an accident that has left the community in shock and mourning.
Ann was crossing the parking lot of the Boscov’s store on Perkiomen Avenue when she was struck by a pickup truck. Despite the swift response of emergency personnel, she succumbed to her injuries, leaving behind a family, friends, and a community who cherished her presence. Another woman walking nearby was also struck and transported to the hospital, and our thoughts remain with her as she recovers.
The tragedy has resonated deeply across Exeter Township and surrounding areas, highlighting how precious and fragile life can be. Authorities have confirmed that the driver remained at the scene and is fully cooperating with investigators. Police worked diligently, documenting the crash scene, taking precise measurements, and gathering witness accounts to understand the circumstances surrounding this heartbreaking event.
Ann Arena’s legacy, however, is not defined by the circumstances of her passing but by the life she lived. Friends and neighbors remember her as a devoted family member, a caring friend, and a compassionate member of her community. Her kindness, warmth, and generosity will be remembered by all who had the privilege of knowing her.
In times like this, words feel inadequate, but they are also a way to honor her memory. May her family find comfort in the love and support of those around them, and may Ann’s spirit continue to inspire compassion, care, and connection within the community she called home.
Anyone who witnessed the accident or has information that could assist investigators is encouraged to contact the Exeter Township Police Department at 610-779-1490. Every detail could help bring clarity and closure to this tragic event.
Rest in peace, Ann Arena. Your presence, your smile, and your kindness will forever be remembered and treasured by all who knew you.
