Born August 8th, 1913 to parents Christian and Emelia (Nathan) Weber, Zeeland, ND. At 102 years of age she still had such a strong desire to live as long as she could to share her stories and smiles. October 3rd, 1920, Anita moved to Yakima with her parents and three younger brothers. In 1921 the family moved to Gromore area, where her father was an orchardist, raising apples. Anita was able to complete her 11th year of school before the death of her father in 1931. By then there were nine children in the family and Anita was going to have to help out by working for wages.

Anita Gordon met and married William (Bill) Costin on 19th April, 1975. Bill and Anita shared 28 years together until his death 28th July, 2003. At that time they were residing on Wide Hollow Road, Yakima, WA. Anita Costin worked at the fruit warehouse until her mid sixties. She enjoyed her animals especially her small dogs. She always had cats and chickens and a few sheep, especially baby lambs. She was a great cook and made the best apple pies. Anita loved attending the Weber Family Reunions, held on the 4th of July weekend for the last sixty years. It was such a wonderful time for all the immediate families. Many great memories were created during these times.
