Saying I wish you my deepest sympathies, seems rather inadequate for a person who touched deeply so many lives. Sister Annette was my home room teacher and religion teacher at NS Billings until 1973. We kept in touch on and off through the years, often running into other members of her order who knew her well. She will be missed here, but is in great company now. A very special person who lived fully what she believed and gave back 100 fold. God bless you Sister and God bless your family.

My sincere sympathy to the family of Sr.Annette Walker who was my teacher in Grade 10 and 11 at St. Patrick's School. We were her first graduating class and several students stayed in touch with her which was a wonderful tribute to her.
I think of Sr. Annette every time I type a long passage. I can see her in front of our typing class. She obviously did a great job as I never forgot this skill.
May she rest in peace now.
Sincerely,
Eileen Pratt

To the Family of Sr. Annette Walker
My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.
Sr. Annette taught me in Grade 8, 10 and 11 at St. Patrick's Hight School in Montreal. I was in her first graduating class in 1958.
I have kept in touch with Sr. Annette over the years with visits, Christmas and birthday cards and lastly by e-mail.
Sister attended our 25th reunion in 1983 but was unable to join us for our 50th in 2008 but the girls visited her at Villa Marguerite afterwards.
She was a very special woman and will be missed.
I know that she was in poor health over the past few years but is now at peace with Our Lord.
My deepest sympathies

To The Family of Sr. Annette Walker,
Sending my deepest sympathy on the passing of a very dear person.
Sr. Annette was my teacher in grade ten and eleven at St. Patrick's High School.
We kept in touch for many years with visits, school reunions and would see each other at St. John Fisher Church when she visited her parents. We also kept in touch with Christmas greetings.
I will be thinking of her and all the family today. Unfortunately I live in Alberta and will not be atttending the service.
Sincere Condolences
Marjorie (Corrigan) O'Reilly
