Anna Kamplain

Anna Pritchett Kamplain TUSCALOOSA - Anna Pritchett Kamplain, age 15, went to her heavenly home on December 15, 2017. She passed away at UAB Hospital, surrounded by her family and friends, from complications after having her liver transplant surgery. She lived in Tuscaloosa, Alabama and was a freshman at Hillcrest High School. To know Anna was to know love. Anna knew how to love unconditionally and showed us how to love. She accepted everyone she came in contact with. She never failed to tell people she loved them. She had a smile that brightened the room and a heart that was filled with joy. She was a special gift to everyone who knew her. Anna's positive attitude about life and happiness was contagious, as was her laugh, and she was a joy to be around. Most of all, Anna loved God and lived her life to serve him and those around her.
