Her career began as a RN, graduating from St. Joseph's Hospital School of Nursing in 1949. Anne enjoyed nursing and believed in the close and attentive care that she provided for her patients. She then completed further training at Bowman Gray School of Medicine to become a nurse anesthetist. She married Dr. William S. Stickley in 1956 subsequently lived overseas in Athens, Greece for two years, making several trips to the Greek islands and to Egypt. She spent the remainder of her life in the Winchester and Strasburg area with much of her time devoted to the renovation and maintenance of her home at Frye Fort.

She was an excellent seamstress and made most of her own clothing. She enjoyed entertaining and preparing gourmet foods - everyone remembers the eclairs! She enjoyed woodworking, landscaping, planting and constructing stone walls at Frye Fort on Cedar Creek. Her strong personality always let those around her know exactly where they stood. She played mahjong regularly with friends until back pain prevented her from enjoying social activities. She was an avid reader. After taking a course in journalism at Shenandoah University, she had a short story accepted for publication in the Southern Crescent Review, an accomplishment of which she was quite proud.
