Thank you to all who planned her Celebration of Life … Fr. Mike of St. John’s, Fr. Bob & Fr. Clark of St. Michael’s, all of our local clergy, Richard Determan, Andy Immel, Bruce McPherson, Wes Simms, Autumn & Simone Bushard, Konrad & Lisa Baumert, Barry Tanner, Jen Stroud, Mike Finley and Sara Pink.
Thank you to Scopazzi’s for completely handling the reception. Thanks to Ben Lomond & Scotts Valley Markets, Johnnie’s, New Leaf & especially Safeway for food trays.
Thank you to Bob, Carol & Rob Slawinski for hosting a memorial concert to raise much-needed funds for Valley Churches United Missions. Many thanks to Lacy J. Dalton & her band of marvelous musicians. Many thanks to Sharon Allen & her bandmates for opening the show. Bruno’s BBQ supplied tasty treats.
Many thanks to the Sentinel, Press Banner & Scotts Valley Times for media coverage of Annette’s biography and so many kind words. As the Sentinel so aptly stated in a recent editorial “ She was one of a kind and the best way to honor her memory is to ensure Valley Churches United Missions has the financial and service support to continue her work.” While we know we will never fill her shoes, she has left such a well-oiled team and dedicated Board that is committed to carry on.
