Anna Lee Hultman, 91, of Bartlesville, passed away on October 31, 2024. She was born on March 5, 1933, in Hoffman to Louis and Margaret Marie (Ackerman) Hood. Anna spent most of her childhood in the Okmulgee County community. She graduated high school from Morris High School in May of 1951.
Anna married James Robert Hultman on August 13, 1960, at Morris First Baptist Church. The couple lived in Henryetta, before moving to Clovis, N.M. and Lindsay, as James’ career took them to various places. They finally settled in Bartlesville in July of 1968, where they continued to raise their family.
Anna worked for Bell Telephone Company for a short time before moving on to a job she truly enjoyed. She loved working with the public and held positions at TG&Y and Braum’s, where she worked for many years as an assistant manager before retiring. In her spare time, she enjoyed visiting the local casino and trying her luck on the penny slots. She also dabbled in horse races and dog racing. Anna was an avid fan of all things Oklahoma State – football, basketball, baseball, softball and the list goes on.
