Beyond her church involvement, Annette was a dedicated member of the Westside Extension Homemakers.

Annette had a passion for quilting, creating beautiful pieces that were cherished by her family and friends. She also enjoyed attending southern gospel concerts, spending time at the lake, camping and fishing. However, her greatest joy came from spending time with her family and grandchildren, creating memories that will be treasured forever.

and Jacey Crayton; Kendyll Thompson; Zoie Weiberdink and her husband, Matt; and Zani Thompson. She also leaves behind three great-grandchildren, Mazie, Zyla, and Titus, with another on the way. Annette is further survived by her sisters, Barbara Orrell, Karon Cheatwood and her husband, Lonnie, and Guyla Jackson, as well as a host of nieces, nephews, cousins and friends who will miss her dearly.

A viewing will be held from 4-8 p.m. Tuesday, January 28, 2025, at Integrity Funeral Service. Funeral services are scheduled for 2 p.m. Wednesday, January 29, 2025, at Integrity Chapel, with Rev.

Annette’s legacy of love, faith and community service will continue to inspire all who knew her.
