Bob and Anna Edenfield
Franchise Owners since 2009
Being part of Home Instead is a very personal experience to both Anna and Bob. With their experience helping Anna's family care for her parents and now caring for Bob's 90 year old mother, they understood when the opportunity arose to make this personal experience a new life's mission. They both feel one of the most gratifying parts of Home Instead is the daily fulfillment; knowing that the Caregivers and dedicated staff strive to make such a positive impact on senior's lives every day. They believe the Home Instead daily mission is to keep seniors in their homes safely and comfortably; adding to their quality of life, while preserving their dignity and independence. Bob and Anna have been married for 20 years. They moved to the Hattiesburg community about four years ago and genuinely enjoy living here and growing into part of the community. Bob was once overheard to say, "the two nicest groups of people I have ever met are the native Hawaiians and the folks in the Hattiesburg area" Both Anna and Bob are involved in the business, where Bob oversees daily operations while Anna is actively involved with community projects like our Be A Santa to A Senior, a community wide effort on behalf of less fortunate Seniors during the Christmas season. Bob's background before Home Instead has been in engineering applications and technical sales. He graduated from Kennesaw State University with continuing education at University of Georgia and Georgia Tech. Anna graduated with a degree in Psychology from Southern Louisiana University. She has worked as a case manager in social work for four years before coming to Home Instead. Both feel their work careers and life experience, their love of seniors combine helped them understand they are in the right place and the right time to help make a difference in senior's lives and our community.
