I loved aunt Annabelle with all my heart and soul. Ill miss her witty sayings and her gentle yet not so subtle ways. What you saw is what you got with Annabelle, she had no hidden agenda and no guile. She marched to the beat of her own drummer that's for sure. But a kinder sweeter lady you'll never meet. I love you aunt Annabelle and I'll miss you. See you around the corner.

Aunt Annabelle,
I have so many memories of you It is hard to say which is my favorite one of all. I think the first time we brought pickles over and the first thing she did was use the bathroom on your living room floor, you would not let me punish er as you said she was giving you a gift to know she is comfortable. I am glad you enjoyed your 90th Surprise Party, it felt good knowing how much it meant to you and you had no Idea, I wish people could of known you as Bob and I and my family did we all love you so much, The kids are missing you like crazy and clarabelle keeps us company. May you Rest in peace, and im glad your transition was smooth. I love you.
Laura
