She was an amazing Mamaw. She was so strong, hardworking, loving, kind and God fearing woman. Growing up we had so much fun playing games, cooking, shucking peas and corn, playing dress up with your shoes and jewelry, the flea markets and teaching me life lessons that I will always cherish. There is so much more that I can list as the memories are plentiful. She was not only my mamaw she was my friend. I love you always.

Some of the best times with Annice was when we played Mexican Dominoes with the family. I don't think us ladies of the family ever laughed so hard in our lives. Great memories, fond memories, precious memories. I had the great pleasure of being Bobby's wife and I enjoyed every moment with his family and especially his mother. Annice, you will be loved by so many and missed by a multitude. Thank you for the family history lessons, singing hymns while cooking Thanksgiving dinner and all the great funny moments in between which we had many. Prayers and love to Harold, Peggy, Linda and Jim. She will never be forgotten.

I still remember her chaperoning the trip to El Paso and Mexico. She rode shotgun for every mile I drove. It was quite an adventure! She touched many lives.

I have many fond memories from my time as Annice's daughter-in-law, and am saddened by her passing. She'll always be one of my moms. Much love to all the family. My heart is with you all at this time. I don't know if there is chocolate gravy in heaven, but if there is I can imagine her joyfully making up a batch for all the loved ones who have gone before her.
