OBITUARY
Anita will always be remembered for her beauty, humor, and love for life. Always up for a good time or a spontaneous adventure, she was the life of the party and her smile and laughter brightened any room. She loved planning get togethers with friends and family, and she liked shopping for those events almost as much as attending them! Her love of horror movies and floating down the river was a tradition she passed down to her... see moreAnita will always be remembered for her beauty, humor, and love for life. Always up for a good time or a spontaneous adventure, she was the life of the party and her smile and laughter brightened any room. She loved planning get togethers with friends and family, and she liked shopping for those events almost as much as attending them! Her love of horror movies and floating down the river was a tradition she passed down to her children. She was a fierce fantasy football competitor and enjoyed playing pranks on her co-workers. Anita was also a great listener and compassionate towards those around her. She was a great story teller and writer- a talent she likely picked up from her father. She had a deep love for her friends and family, which showed in how people were drawn to her.
Anita is survived by her husband, Richard McDougal; four children, Jackie Witt, Sarah Witt, Cody McDougal, and Cory McDougal; mother, Leona Alsup; and three brothers, Roy James Alsup, Bob Alsup, and Larry Alsup.
We encourage you to share memories about Anita or things you will remember about her. There is a donation section set up on this page if you would like to contribute to assist the family with funeral and medical costs. Donations are greatly appreciated (even small amounts), but donations are not expected. Any left over funds will be donated to a charity in honor of Anita. The charity is TBD.
We will update this page with information about the funeral and memorial service which will be located in Oklahoma.
Halloween parties were always the best! Any costume she had she'd go all out and knew how to throw a heck of a party. We miss you! It won't ever be the same without youâ¤
