September 18, 2022 at 12:09 amA truly great lady. It was my pleasure to know her for my entire life. She was a second mom to me. She will be missed.
Tracey Heisler says
September 19, 2022 at 4:29 pmI am the executive director at CASA, and at our staff meeting this morning we were talking about how Annie used to bring pictures of the children for whom she advocated to every hearing so the judge could see who decisions were being made for. We did not know of Annie’s passing until after the meeting. I cannot help but think that she wanted us to remember all of her contributions to the children she so diligently served. She was a wonderful woman who will be deeply missed.
