To Annett's loved ones,
My mother considered Annett her friend since her move to the Apostolic condos in Eureka. Annette was always pleasant to visit with, and gracious in sharing cookies and special treats with her friends and neighbors at her residence. Our hearts are saddened at your loss, and she is missed. May you find comfort in your time of grief.
Sincerely,
Margaret and Don Porzelius
