for Anissa Wirth
April 22, 2012
Hey you,
I love you so very much. I miss you every day and some days I wait at the kitchen window and I realize I am still waiting for you to come home and tell me about your day. I keep hoping that if I wait long enough the car will pull up and you and little man will hop out and come in the door ready for dinner. I will miss you for the rest of my life. I love you Boto-tots

I don't know how to put into words how much Anissa helped our daughter, Shaydin through her kindergarten year...she connected with Shaydin on a level that even as her own mother I couldn't do...Our family is deeply saddened by the loss of somebody we truly felt was a God send...I would go into every meeting with her feeling so frustrated and negative but Anissa always had me leaving with a sense of hope for my special Shaydin. I pray that Anissa'a family feel comfort in this time and always know that she has left footprints in many beautiful childrens' lives. God Bless

My prayers and thoughts go out to the family of Anissa. She was an incredible woman who loved helping children. She was helping my daughter in school and that is how we came to know Anissa. It is really shocking and sad to hear that she has passed on. I hope her family overcomes this obstacle and knows how great of a human being she was.

A life taken to soon in my opinion... She is loved and will forever be loved by the ones closest to her...

Anissa was truly gifted at what she did. She worked so hard to make sure that every child she encountered was given the tools they needed to be as successful as they could be. She was such a great advocate for children and will be sorely missed.

I'll never forget the first time I met Anissa. That was her interview for the Argosy school psychology program in August 2004. It was only a week before school was to begin and she was 8 1/2 months pregnant with her second child.
I could see her intelligence and determination, as well as her passion for children. I am so glad that she became such an excellent school psychologist. I could already tell that she was an outstanding mother and wife. She loved her family so much. Her life was much too short, but she managed to accomplish so much in such a short time. I know that she touched the hearts of so many. I am so proud to have known her. My deepest sympathies to her family.

Anissa was truly great at what she did. She was well liked by all and it was obvious her children were her world. I send my thoughts to her family. I feel so lucky to have known such a wonderful person even if it was only for a short time.
June 4, 2011
My thoughts and prayers are with her family. I didnt know Anissa long, but she was such a blessing in our life. She helped me so much during this last year, words cannot express how much I appreciated her. She cared about each child and it showed. She will be greatly missed. God Bless her family.

I am so saddened to hear of the loss of Anissa... a perfect star. She had so much love to give and such a beautiful soul, she will be deeply missed.
My Thoughts, Prayers and Love go out to her and all her family and friends.

Anissa was a vital, valuable member of our Alta Loma Elementary staff. There was never a doubt of her top-knotch competence and knowledge in the field of school psychology. She could get us through tedious, complicated conferences quickly & with a smile! She was always cheerful, warm, & friendly as a colleague and friend. God Bless her beautiful family.

My thoughts and prayers go to Anissa's family at this very sad and difficult time. I met Anissa many years ago through her Grandma Connie. She was just a teenager, but very mature for her age. Her Grandma often talked about Anissa and all of her accomplishments. She was so very proud of her. I know that now she is with her Grandma and Grandpa. I know Anissa will watch over her sweet family and comfort them. God Bless

My thoughts and prayers are with this family during this difficult time!!
My co-workers and I rushed immediately across the street to assist them both and I spent time with Anissa's sister and stayed with her. My heart will always pray for hers because I can't imagine loosing a sister as she did and I know this will be so hard for her. God took Anissa without a struggle and I am sure has bigger plans for her - I just pray he comforts her sweet children, husband and family at this time. I pray her husband will have the strength to keep going when his heart is breaking. My prayers are with each child that they know how much their mama loved them and that she is watching over them. My thoughts and prayers are with your family!

I miss my beautiful wonderful brilliant friend. There are so many fantastic memories I have with her, and I am heart broken that I can't make more memories with her. I will miss the conversations that lasted into the middle of the night the most. If I new the last time I was going to hug her was at the end of our girl scouts meeting I would have never let her go. I would have reminded her of how amazing she was and how proud of her I am. I want my friend back.

Although I only worked with Annisa briefly, it was obviously that she was a dedicated, caring, hard-working professional that was willing to do whatever she could to help students succeed. Every time I saw her she was wearing a smile and was encouraging others. She will be missed. Your family is in our prayers.

I first met Anissa in the developmental preschool at Cotton Boll. She was completing her externship as a school psychologist. What a wonderful team member she was. Insightful, vibrant, and a team player. She will be deeply missed.
My heart goes out to her family, her huband and four children. I am always reminded during these times that the Lord has a plan and He cares for us. We are to give thanks to Him at all times and I pray that while we search for understanding, we keep our eyes on the cross and what His son did for us. For through that, we have the hope of seeing our dear Anissa again one day.
ISAIAH 43:1-3

2 When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, nor shall the flame scorch you.
3 For I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior; . . .
In His Almighty Grip,

Anissa was such a happy person and so pleasant to be around. She could brighten a room with her smile. I was lucky to have had the chance to work with her and know her.

As a new teacher this year, Anissa helped me completely without any hesitations. She gave me tips for my classroom and to better my teaching. She was there for me when I was sobbing and when I was ecstatic about a new method working. Beyond that she truly got to know me and care about me. We shared some very memorable times in the little amount of time I knew her. I feel so blessed I got to know her! I had her son in my class and he was a riot!! She loved that boy so much and her passion shines through Caige and the other kids! I will truly miss Anissa and my thoughts, prayers and hugs go out to her family!

Since I was a child, I've considered Anissa a close friend. She was an amazing listener, a loyal friend, and had a heart 3 sizes to big. Some of the best memories I have growing up are because of Anissa. My deepest condolences go to Jason and their children.

While I had not seen Anissa for many years, I have known her to be kind hearted, incredibly funny and a great dancer. I appreciate, immensely, the role she played in many people lives - as a mother, wife, guide and friend. May she always be remembered and honored by her friends and family.
I will hold you all in my heart and prayers.

So shocked and saddened to learn the death of Anissa. Our sympathies and deepest condolences go to her husband, children, and the rest of the family. Anissa and I worked together as school psychologists during the 2007-2008 school year in TD3. I was very touched by Anissa when, at the end of the school year, she gifted a Disney play tea set for our 2 year old daughter we were adopting from India in June 2008. It was a busy time at the end of the school year and many just pooled their monies for a gift card, but I was touched that Anissa went out of her way and chose such a personal gift for our daughter. Our daughter continues to play with that tea set three years later at age five. When my daughter plays "tea" I do find myself remembering how thoughtful Anissa was in May 2008 by gifting us that tea set. My prayers are for Anissa and her family.
