    Anne Steinberg died peacefully in her sleep on Dec. 26, 2014. A long-time resident of Palo Alto, Anne was committed to civic interests. For many years, she was a very active member of the League of Women Voters, becoming a member of the California State Board of that organization. On a more local level, she was the founder of the Rose Kleiner Frail Elderly day program, and actively participated as a member of the Palo Alto Friends of the Library, the Palo Alto Planning Commission and the Palo Alto Housing Corporation Board for years. She was very proud of all her work, but especially the Housing Corporation. Anne subsequently moved to San Francisco where she was a member of the San Francisco Friends of the Library. Being a Friend of the Library was extraordinarily meaningful to her because it affirmed her life-long love of literature. Anne was born in London, UK, in 1919, to parents Abram and Rachel Moss. A teenager during the Blitz, Anne met her future husband, David Steinberg, in London his youngest brother had been sent to stay with her family as part of the kindertransport program. Anne and David were married in London on June 8, 1944, while David was on leave from the RAF. After the war, they lived in London until 1948, when they immigrated to the US, as a family of three with daughter, Aline and lived in Queens, NYC, where their son, James (Jim) was born. With many friends and family in New York, they remained there until 1957 when they moved to Palo Alto. Over the years, Anne became close to many friends and family members who also moved to California. Her love of travel gave her numerous opportunities to explore overseas and visit far-flung family members. She treasured trips to Japan with David, a visit to Singapore for a family wedding, and many trips to the UK to see family. One regret she had about aging was that she eventually had to give up traveling and always cautioned Aline and Jim to travel while they could! Anne's treasured grandchildren were all close to
