Anne L. (Britto) Drabic, 88, of Richlandtown, passed away peacefully at home on July 8, 2025 with family by her side. She was the beloved wife of the late Ralph G. Drabic, Sr. whom she wed in Baumholder, Germany in 1958. She lost the love of her life in 1993.
Born in Palmerton, PA on March 15, 1937, Anne was the daughter of the late Joaquim and Ibraina (Beirao) Britto. She was a longtime member of St. Isidore’s RC Church, Quakertown, PA.
Anne graduated from Palmerton High School before enrolling in the Haff Hospital nursing program in Northampton, PA. She dedicated her life to nursing, spending 56 years as a nurse at Haff’s, Quakertown Hospital, and with several local physicians in family practice. She provided excellent care for many patients over the years and touched the lives of many with her caring and gentle ways.
Anne enjoyed watching Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune on a daily basis as well as sports, but especially loved attending the sporting events of her grandchildren over the years. She was a huge fan of the Philadelphia Eagles, most notably Saquon Barkley, and was happy to have witnessed two Super Bowl wins. Her most recent hobby was doing diamond paintings which brought her great joy. She was so proud of each completed project.
Anne was preceded in death by her loving husband, parents, two sisters (Marie Sager and Alice DiMeglio), and a grandson (Michael Drabic).
