Goodbye, My Friend
Annette lost her battle with cancer last night. Please lift up her family in prayer–her husband Tom, and her sons Ryan (who is the reason we met because of the Down syndrome connection) and Kurtis.
Annette, we will so miss your bright spot in our T-21 community. We love you and miss you. Thank you for being who you are and for sharing your family and your journey with us and allowing us to be part of your life.

Oh, Chewy. . . *hug*

Oh, so sad. Praying for you and for her family.

Thank you both. I know their family so appreciates our prayers. The boys are quite young, and I’m not sure what Ryan understands. Annette was a beautiful soul who left such a special mark on the earth. It’s hard to know that her life ended at such a young age of 41 (my age), but I am so thankful that I can take an eternal view of things, and that I have the hope of seeing her again one day!
