A special lady was lost this morning. She will be missed. Her strengths, compassion, friendship and stubborn ways taught me so much. So many summer evenings spent on the porch with Annie and the big bear ( yep she taught my son to call Aurel the big bear). I’d say no ice cream and the next thing I knew Matt and her were coming down the stairs with ice cream lol. I remember Crystal all dressed up and Annie determined to get her dirty …… The hours she spent in the back yard with Matt in the sandbox. The stories, the laughter we shared. The scream when she found a snake in a magazine ….I go running upstairs thinking she was hurt and it was a picture. Pushing her out of the snow bank in the winter and off to the bingo she go….nothing got in her way once she was determined to go somewhere or do something. She once gave me a saying that said situation made up neighbours but hearts made us friends. Goodbye my friend. Brenda and Matt My thoughts and pray are with you Aurel, Tracey, Rosanne, Crystal and Sara

So sorry to hear of Annie’s passing. I loved her laugh and will always remember her love for her daughters and all the fun I had in her home with Rosanne. Thinking of you all during this very difficult time.Life is short and we must always love to the fullest! Cathy and Richard Laframboise
