To the family of Annie Maynard, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Ms. Maynard taught me history in both the 9th & 10th grades at East Wake High School and she had a genuine love for history. She certainly had a zest for life and people. She always made a point to speak to everyone. She loved the Lord and her church as well. My son, Drew, always got a kick out of the things Ms. Maynard would say to him. She was a sweet lady. She loved her family and I know you will miss her greatly. You have my deepest sympathy. I know that she is smiling down on you now. I hope your faith and your love of the Lord and memories of your mother will give you comfort in the days to come.

I am very sorry to learn of Annie's death. She was a sweet, loving woman. I taught with her for several years at E. Wake High School. Before then she was a teacher when my deceased husband was her principal. Annie was a good woman, and my sympathy goes out to all her family members.
