My deepest sympathies for my brother in law Rodger Didion and to all the Didion family. I met Annie when I was a young girl of around the age of 8 or 9 through Rodger. From my recall she was a warm, witty kind person who always had a smile and loved her family. My heart goes out to Rodger who cared for her unselfishly through her last days here on this earth. May God give him the strength and peace through our savior Jesus Christ at this difficult time. Love from Gina Mitchell-Ryall and the whole Ploszkiewicz Family .
