What a sweet lady. We knew her when she and her family lived in Pleasant Grove, On occassion she would babysit one of our small ones while we went on a trip. On returning, sometimes our kids didn't know whether they wanted to come back to us. She was always helpful and kind. Condolences to her remaining family. Harvey and Sharon Hatch

Annette, What to say about a beautiful lady inside and out. I came by knowing Annette and the entire Swapp family by my baby sister Kerrie, who married Bryan. All I know and have ever felt or seen of her was a good hearted lady, who loved everyone and was so kind always had a smile on her face and was truly interested in how you were doing when she would ask you. She will be missed, much love and prayers to the Swapp family.
Love Wendy Bailey and family
