Born in New Brunswick, New Jersey, on March 7, 1942, and raised in Metuchen, Anna Vee was deeply influenced by her family's faith and service in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, where her father served as Stake President. Their home often welcomed church general authorities during stake conferences, providing Anna Vee with many opportunities to develop a strong testimony of the restored gospel of Jesus Christ.

A 1960 graduate of Metuchen High School, Anna Vee distinguished herself as the only woman from her school choir to qualify for the New Jersey All-State Choir. She was also active in athletics, participating in basketball. Anna Vee continued her education at Brigham Young University, pursuing a bachelor's degree in education. During her studies, she returned home as needed to care for her parents during periods of illness.

Anna Vee married the love of her life, Farrell Thompson, on December 22, 1965, in the Logan, Utah Temple. She and her husband lived in Idaho for 2 years, then spent 30 years in Mount Vernon, Washington, and 27 years in Orem, Utah. She dedicated 17 years to billing work for clinics and hospitals, while Farrell worked as a high school teacher and coach.

Anna Vee was a devoted member of the LDS Church, serving in various callings within the Relief Society and Young Women’s organizations. She was an accomplished musician, frequently accompanying and performing in quartets and as a soloist.

She is survived by her husband, Farrell, and her brother, Larry (Ginger). Her children are Lance (Julie), Tadd (Suzanne), Wade (Donnell), Annakay, and Tera (Brian).
