Mrs. Anna Richter

Anna Richter, 89 of Palmetto, passed away on December 13, 2012 at the TideWell Hospice House in Arcadia, Florida. Anna was born icon March 4, 1923 in Kryne, a small farming village outside of Bratislava Czechoslovakia. Anna immigrated to this country in 1937 for a better life with her Father Martin Otruba, and Mother Anna Mozolak at 14 years old. The family settled in New York City. Factory work, hard labor, and the will to succeed the family was fortunate enough to purchase a chicken farm in Somerville, New Jersey.

After being in the USA for a number of years, Anna went back to her homeland after WW II in the mid 1940's to spend some time with family. Vacationing in the Tatra Mountains with her sister Emily, she met my father Vladimir Richter (deceased 2006) on leave from the Army also vacationing, from Ceska Trebova. That was Sudetenland 60 miles outside of Prague. They courted, and married in February 1949 in Ceska Trebova, a small village now called the Czech Republic.

Anna (a seamstress) and Vladimir (an accountant) had made plans to start a new life in the United States. The Warsaw pact, Cold War, WWII, German occupation, socialism, communism, USSR, the mass murders of hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians was to be part of their past. They thought it was no problem to cross borders since Anna was a citizen of the United States. Prior to departure the communist party did not approve Vladimir's Visa. He was not permitted to proceed to the USA, while his new bride Anna Richter boarded the aircraft and no turning back. The international economic and military alliances denied all visas and no one was allowed out of the country, and no was allowed in. They were separated for 10 years 2 months.

The border control was ordered shoot to kill if an "escape" to defect was attempted. An attempt was made to "smuggle" Vladimir out of occupied Czechoslovakia to USA. The smugglers were caught by the KGB, and Anna's father Martin Otruba's $5,000 payment lost. After repeated applications to the United Nations, Shirley Temple Black became involved and assisted my father and mother to reunite. Shirley Temple Black later became the US ambassador to Czechoslovakia.

Happily reunited, a son Jerry (aka Jaroslav) was born icon in 1961. Due to the separation and older age of Anna (aka Anicka), and Vladimir (aka Walter) a Down syndrome son John (aka Janko), was born icon on Nov 22, 1963…..the same day J.F.K. was assonated.

Anna was a talented seamstress in charge of the bridal department creating custom bridal gowns for the rich and famous in NYC Bloomingdales. Vladimir a German speaking Czech landed a job on Wall Street. Not liking the position he took on a bartender position in a famous nightclub The Lorelei, on the upper east side of Manhattan. He later purchased into a partnership into one of the most popular nightclubs of the era with Charlie Schroder and Elliot Welles.

Anna and Vladimir Richter lived in New York City during the 1960's then purchased home in Malba on the borough of Queens. In 2005 the Richter's moved to a vacation home in Clearwater Beach, Florida then eventually in Palmetto Florida.

After suffering for years with a heart condition, poor circulation, and painful arthritis Anna was forced to have an emergency appendectomy, and gall bladder removed in the second week of June 2012. . To proceed with surgery her blood thinner needed to be discontinued and a severe stroke followed the day before father’s day. Paralyzed and weak Anna held on wanting to "get better" so she could care for her Down syndrome son. Not even a chance…..to get better she was in TideWell residential hospice in Arcadia. She received the most attentive care and the most angelic compassionate staff I could have ever prayed for the end of my mother's life.

The family will receive friends from 10-11 A.M. on Monday, December 17, 2012 at the Living Lord Lutheran Church, 11107 Palmbrush Trail, Lakewood Ranch, Florida where a celebration of her life will follow at 11:00 A.M.
