Mark,
I am blessed to have met Annie. Rett Syndrome did not win with Annie. Annie's personality pushed beyond its bounds. Her life was lived well because she was well loved. My condolences.

Annie...I'll never forget saying in the classroom: "There's a reason for everything", and out of the blue, you burst out laughing! How you startled me! The knowing look in your eyes told it all. God bless...it was an honor to know you.

Dear Dr. Haffenreffer, I was casually reading today's obituaries and I was fortunate enough to read Anne's. It sounds to me as if you did everything a father could do for his child. As far as making her life better - how could she ask for more? She had a loving father. It sounds to me that made YOUR life better - God Bless your family
