Dear Mac,
I can't even begin to tell how very sad we are for your loss. Annie was such a true friend to me thru the years and I will cherish all our talks on the phone and in person. She will be sadly missed. Such a sweet person and the memories we have of our times at the river will stay with us forever. We love you both and will lift you and your family up in prayers at this difficult time. Love, Ron and Marilynn
