After her husband passed away in 1974, Anna decided to dedicate her life to spending time with her two children and managing her bar, Bar Centrale, instead of getting remarried. She opened the bar in 1958, serving espressos and cappuccinos to customers.

Since her husband passed away, Anna has never thought of seeking another relationship. Instead, she focused on catering to her customers.
Her bar is now an attraction because people can’t believe that Anna, who is now 100 years old, is still working.
