I first met Annette about 37 or so years ago when the guys (Pat & Gary) sent me to pick her up to join us at Callahan’s. We had never met before that moment. Who would have thought we become the best of friends almost from that moment forward! Annette has been a wonderful friend over all these years. She was Auntie Net to our son and our nieces & nephews. She was family to all of us. I will miss you forever Annette. Love you!

I had the pleasure of working with Annette at Dallas Mavis and Greatwide Truck Load Management. When the company closed we would always meet up and she was the same sweet person all the time and such a kind and caring person. RIP my friend.

My condolences to Gary. Annette was a sweet girl. I’ve known her and Gary through my brother, Phil. I haven’t seen either one of you in many years since I moved to Florida. May God provide healing.
