We are just shocked. Aunty Annette has always put her all into everything for our family - both her immediate and extended. She baked me a banana loaf for my birthday every single year, because once upon a time (I was a teenager!) I told her I liked her banana bread. Her homemade cards for the kids for their birthday's and the games she always had for us as kids...She will be and is so missed already. We wish Uncle Rob and cousins Julia & Daniel with Shmaya, Daniel and Jonathen so much love. Love, Hilary, Effi & the kids

Annette was a year ahead of me throughout school. In her high school graduating yearbook she wrote that her ambition was "To speak as many languages as possible and to work with children" She certainly fulfilled that dream touching the lives of so many children she taught. She was a dedicated educator and it was a privilege to work with her. May her family and friends find comfort in each other and the wonderful memories she made.

Dear Rob, Julia, Daniel, Jonathan and family, It will be hard to say goodbye to such a dear and longtime friend. She is the epitome of a 'gitta nishuma', a person who constantly puts others first, thinks of their needs, is compassionate, supportive and caring to her family, friends, and students. We will miss her. Our condolences to the entire family.

I just found out today and I am numb from this painful tragedy Such a beautiful human being. My only comfort is that she will be with Uncle Harry and Auntie Yedis, my aunt and uncle who were such a major part of my life and who exemplified doing for others a middah which I personally witnessed with Annette. Love, Pamela

Annette was our neighbour for almost 40 years. She was a very generous and intelligent person who often helped us. We saw how well she and Robert raised three very fine children. We will miss her.
