I got to know Annette on several genealogy trips to Salt Lake City. She was such a lovely, gentle lady who also knew how to have a good time. She will be missed.

Bob, Shane, Brent and Reed, we share in your loss. I hope these words can bring you some comfort, as they have comforted me when experiencing a similar loss.

Annette was a considerate flatmate, a kind friend, a charming hostess and a wonderful mother. We saw Annette and Bob, and Shane, Brent and Reed, all too infrequently but we will remember her with much love.

"Crossing the Bar"
by Alfred Lord Tennyson
Sunset and evening star,
And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning of the bar,
When I put out to sea,
But such a tide as moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam,
When that which drew from out the boundless deep
Turns again home.
Twilight and evening bell,
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of farewell,
When I embark;

I remember Annette and Bob as both wonderful and caring individuals in the time I knew them during my years of association with the Boy Scouts in Saratoga. My heart and blessing go out to the entire Woolsey family in this time of grief and mourning. I know that Annette is with our Father in Heaven smiling down on Bob and their 3 sons (Shane, Brent and Reed). Terry Markle Sr and Peggy Markle

Too young. Too much undone. Too many people who will miss her.

Annette was knowledgable and personable, as well as generous with her time, in assisting the public in researching their family histories at the Santa Clara City Library. She will be missed very much by the library staff.
