Tom,

I'm sorry to hear about your lost. I know this is a difficult time and hope you are doing well.

Dear Tom, Tracey and Derek,
We will miss Annette, and remember our good times together down the shore and the dinner in New York City.
Her spirit is an example to all of us.
Love, 
Cate and Scott

We should all try to live life with the determination and zeal that Annette displayed in her years of good health. She displayed those same characteristics even more in her challenge to regain good health. I deeply regret that I could not be there personally to express my heartfelt condolences to the entire family, but especially to Tom and Tracey. I can only  say 'goodbye' to a trusted and dear friend. Sincerely, Mike Lynam

My Condolences  to the Connell and Guagno Familes:  I was so sorry to hear about the passing of Annette.  The last time I saw her was at the St. Joseph's 8th Grade Class Reunion.  I went to St. Joseph's grade school in Ambler, PA,  with Annette for 8 eights.  I can remember singing with her in the "Girls" Choir.   She always had a smile and never had an unkind thing to say about anyone.  May she RIP with her Lord and Saviour.

With Deepest Sympathy,
Donna (Wack) Day

My dearest Marie and family.

May our loving God and Mother Mary wrap their comforting arms around you at this time.

With all my love from CA, wishing I could hug you now,  Michele

Aunt Marie, Tom, Tracy & family, I will forever remember my beautiful cousin walking by our house in Pa. when we were kids. My Mom & I would say she reminded us of a fashion Model! We lived in the same neighborhood & got to see each oher frequently. I feel very blessed that recently we got to have a 2 HOUR long conversation & did some catching up over the years..I am so grateful for that time we shared..although we couldn't be with you guys you were in our hearts, thoughts & prayers as you are today...I will miss that wonderful contagious personality of my cousin but will always have our memories as a family.

Tom, Tracey, Derek, Brice and Graham-

You all were her pride and Joy! She was so proud of all of you.
 
 Annette was the first friend I made in Charlotte. I will always be reminded of her positive and never give up attitude.Even when she was at her worse in pain, she made everyone feel special and important and made her cares seem insignificant to others.    
    
We will miss her but she will forever be a part of our lives in memory.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dear Tom, Marie and Tracy and family,
I was so sad to hear that Annette had passed. Jill Joyner, our neighbor told me. I was SOoo glad I got to visit with Annette when she was in the hospital. She looked so good and had such a great attitude -- such a fighter and hopeful about life. I will be praying for you all -- we will miss her and I pray that the Lord will give you great and fun memories of Annette. Her radiance, joy and love for all are some of the attributes I will remember. Tom, if there is anything we can do, please let Jerry, John and me know. Prayerfully yours, Virginia Youngblood

Dear Mr. Connell and Tracey,

Annette was a great lady and I will always remember the good times at the Janetka summer parties and her terrific sense of humor.  

Thank you, Mrs. Connell, for being an important part of my parents lives and for your loving and fun spirit.  May you rest in peace and comfort, always and forever.

Dear Tom + Tracey,

I was so sad to get the call from Nor.  Please accept my love and compassion.  Yours was a love match from the beginning.  It is certain that Annette is being held in the palm of God's hand, 
                       
God bless, Mary Ellen

May your memories of the wonderful times you shared with your loved one comfort you and your family, today and always.

We're so sorry for your loss, and our prayers are with your whole family.  We think of you often, and know that you are so very dearly loved.

Tom, Although I can't be there in person today, I will celebrate the beautiful life you both shared.  Annette's wonderful spirit is with all of us that she has touched.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief.  May your memories bring you comfort.

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

Tom, I am so sorry for your loss. Please remember to lean on your friends for strength, and always remember how much you are cared about. Although no words can really help to ease the loss you bear, just know you are in my every thought and prayer.
