I loved my Aunt Annie very much. She was a lot of fun to be with & liked to tease me. Aunt Annie watched sports with me & liked to spend time with me playing games or reading. We watched a lot of movies together & had fun at parties, especially Christmas. Now she gets to be with GrandpaZ & have fun with him. Chris, Love until next time.
Annie was my UFO buddy we could talk for ever about this and food. She was the only one that could tell when I changed anything in my BBQ sauce with one taste.
Annie while be very missed.
Aunt Annie was always the “fun” Aunt, and that is how I will always remember her. When my sister and I were little, she was the relative who would show up on our birthdays with sea monkeys or other obnoxious toys that our parents didn’t want us to have. When we were older, we had slumber parties at her house with our cousin Amy. We would eat penny candy and stay up late watching movies and television shows that we weren’t allowed to watch at home. When we were teenagers, Aunt Annie could always be counted on to pretend to be our mom when we wanted to get something pierced. She was full of life and crazy in the best possible way, and our family will never be the same now that she is gone. For one thing, I’m pretty sure we’ll never hear the word “awesome sauce” ever again. I will miss you so much, Nant Nannie! Uncle Bill will see you soon, and I will see you later 😉 You will forever be in my heart.
