\"\"<\/a>Anne Braun Wenslow of Alfred died June 10, 2014, following a valiant struggle against complications from a fall. She was surrounded by her family at the time of her passing.<\/p>\n

Born in Rochester, NY, on July 16, 1931, she was the daughter of Leo Braun Sr. and Anna Dummer Braun.\u00a0 Her parents and an infant daughter, Susan, predeceased her.
\n\u00a0
\nAnne earned her BS degree at Nazareth College, Rochester (NY) and MS degree at the University of Pittsburgh (PA).\u00a0 A gifted teacher, she served at the high school level in Troupsburg, Jasper, Fillmore, Friendship, Alfred-Almond and Wellsville Central Schools.\u00a0 In 1969 she joined Alfred State College as professor of office administration and technology.\u00a0 During her years there, she held campus positions as department chair, curriculum coordinator, president of the Faculty Senate, chair of various college-wide committees, as well as commencement and convocation speaker roles, until her retirement in 1995.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Throughout her career, Anne was a member of several professional organizations.\u00a0 After retirement, she continued as consultant and evaluator of office education programs for the NJ State Higher Education Department and the Commission of Higher Education\/Middle States Association of Secondary Schools and Colleges.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Anne was a loving and proud mother and grandmother, an accomplished seamstress, quilter and needleworker, avid gardener, enthusiastic cook, and golfer. She loved to travel and had a lifelong affection for lighthouses.
