Anna (Ann) May Prentice, age 93, died Friday, July 1, 2022, at Parker at Landing Lane Nursing Home.  She is reunited with her husband and travel partner, William "Bill" Prentice.

Born in the Ridgewood section of Queens, New York, she moved to Somerset, New Jersey in 1956 and later to Hillsborough where she made her home for 49 years. She entered Parker Landing Lane in January 2020.

She worked at Rutgers University in the Food Service Department for 30 years retiring in 1989 as Director of the Douglass Café. While working at Rutgers she began pursuing an undergraduate degree in American Studies which she completed in 1995.
