Annie, who will always be known as "Nanny" to many of us, truly will be missed. She was an upbeat aunt who was there when you needed her. She was a wonderful entrepeneur and a genuinely fun person to be around. Annie loved life, and she held onto her life until she knew God was ready for her. We all love Aunt Annie, and our hearts are hurting because we cannot be with her right now. Our prayers are with all the family during this time.

Annie was a very special person to me becasue she was the mother of my best friend Sandra White. She was always such a happy person to be around--always with a big smile and a joke or two.
