THACKRAY

Anna (nee Cassalia)

On May 29th, 2020, the Thackray Crane Rental family experienced a profound loss like no other, and for that, the world is undoubtedly a little less bright. It is with great sadness that we share that the matriarch of the family Anna Cassalia Thackray passed away peacefully with her family by her side. A life so beautifully lived deserves to be remembered and honored. Anna was the co-founder of the Thackray Crane Rental Co., along with her husband, Walter "Bear" Thackray, who were visionaries ahead of their time. With an entrepreneurial determination, they established the company from humble beginnings in their Fox Chase home in 1947 and over time, their company grew immensely over the years, as did their family. The proud parents of their six children, Walter and Anna will forever be credited for imparting to their children the values of hard work, integrity and honesty. Despite their company growing, Anna and Walter never forgot their beginnings and the golden rule of treating others with sincerity and respect- it is this exact mantra that remains one of the core values of the company today. Anna will fondly be remembered for her sharp wit, generosity, genuine kindness and devout faith. She was indeed proud of her devoted children, Skip, Linda, Bob, Mark, Jim and Carole, and she felt the utmost joy in the company of her grandchildren and great grandchildren, who all adored her. Her legacy is one that will be cherished by the entire Thackray Crane Rental family and all whose lives were touched by Anna. We will honor her memory by dedicating ourselves to continuing the work that she loved so much. We find comfort in knowing that she is reunited with the company patriarch, the Bear. Though she'll be forever missed she will continue to live on forever in our hearts.

Rest in Peace, Mrs. Thackray. 1922- 2020
