Annette Simpson

Outside of school, she spent most of her youth serving Christ at the Mt. Pleasant Baptist Church, which she became a member through baptism.
By age 13, Annette's family left their small town of Sadieville to relocate to Covington, KY where she settled in with her younger siblings, Delores Mary Jo James, Judy Ann and Michael Miller. She attended William Grant & Lincoln Grant schools. She became a member of Ninth Street Baptist Church where she continued to serve for over 40 years as an usher.
It is in Covington, Annette married and later divorced Robert Lee Simpson Sr. From these offsprings would come 15 grandkids, 28 great grandkids, and 7 great great grandkids.
