Annette Rose Schweiss was born on September 27, 1974, in Redwood Falls, MN., the daughter of Edward and Linda (Ulmen) Schweiss. She grew up in Springfield and was baptized and confirmed in the Catholic Faith. Annette graduated from Springfield High School in 1993 and then attended Spencer School of Business. She lived in Arizona and Florida before moving to the Spicer community in 1996. Annette worked as an accountant for several area businesses. Health and wellness were of high importance to Annette. She was certified in the usage of the Bemer medical device and was passionate about teaching others how to improve their life through its use as well as through natural remedies and nutrition. She loved being outdoors in any capacity as long as she was with nature, especially walking, hiking and just being under the sun and grounded to the earth. She also loved the thrill of the open road and speed ...driving her corvettes, motorcycles, and snowmobiles brought her so much joy. She loved every moment that speed and excitement brought to her life.
Annette's favorite time spent ever was with family, and any time spent with her nephews and nieces was her favorite of all. She especially loved any time on the lake as long as she was with those she loved while being on the water. Taking in the beauty of nature as well as being around those she loved were her greatest joys.
Annette gave the greatest gift of all by being a donor. She was able to bless the lives of many people with her lasting legacy of many organs that saved and helped many people.
She is survived by her parents, Edward and Linda Schweiss of Springfield; three siblings, Janninne (and Mark) Massicotte of Tomah, WI., William (and Jesse) Schweiss of Spicer and Amanda (and Jonathan) Beulke of New Prague; nieces and nephews - Matthew, Amelia & Hudson Massicotte, Charlie & Theo Schweiss, and Ava, Sophia & Vivian Beulke; as well as many other relatives & friends.
She was preceded in death by her grandparents.
