Anna Collar was born August 26, 1980 in Powell, Wyoming and grew up in Darrouzett, Texas with her mother, Cathy, father, Randy, and two sisters Brandy and Jennifer. Anna had a passion for life and a smile that lit up any room she entered. Her friends and family remember her as always going out of her way to help others. Anna loved geology and was constantly picking up rocks and other treasures. She made plans to make jewelry out of her treasured stones. She was diagnosed with leukemia on October 14, 2004 and lost her battle on December 22, 2004.
Her dream of a jewelry line remained and is now being fulfilled by her mother, sisters and aunt. A percentage of all sales will go to Anna's Legacy; a group founded in Anna's name that has a desire "to bring joy, laughter, and hope to young people struggling with leukemia," by sending donations to various charities helping children and their families.
Anna's birthstones were Peridot and Carnelian, also the the colors for Leukemia Awareness. After this discovery, we decided to produce a line of jewelry, using these stones for Leukemia Awareness.
