Herb and Annette are two of our nicest neighbors! They both always had smiles and waves for us when we saw them. I remember talking with Annette about things in our neighborhood; she always seemed to know what was going on. She always made me laugh! After her stroke, she and Herb would sit outside in the front of their house. We would sit and talk and she was so sweet and always wanted to be part of the conversation. She had a lot to say! I will miss her and her smiling face! I am so blessed that I knew Annette! Rose Ann and Carl Nelson

I graduated with Annette in 1957. She was always involved in the numerous class reunions we had. Annette was always fun to be around in school as well outside school activities. She will be greatly missed and my sincere condolences to her husband and family for her passing.

I had the pleasure of knowing Annette from the years that I worked with Herb. She was always so nice and was such a joy to talk to whenever we would meet. She was the most supportive wife and mother, her family came first and I know she will be deeply missed. Sending thoughts and prayers.
