Andrew, We are so sorry to hear about "Bam". She was a wonderful lady who we enjoyed seeing when she came to get you at Margaret's everyday. We know you will miss her deeply. We will keep you in our thoughts and prayers.

I felt to know Annie has brought a blessing to my life. We laughed together and cried together. Tina, Linda, Annie and I used to go to lunch together and our lives just got to busy. I gave her the job at Kroger. I am praying for all of you. Annie has gone to be with the Lord. I am sure of that.

Jim, I am truly sadden by your lost. Annie was always so very friendly when ever I met her.

Our prayers are with the family at this time- Annie was a wonderful person, always with a smile and a kind word. She made the best egg rolls I have ever had- You will be missed Annie- Love- Peggy and Amy Valley Below Wholesale

My family and I only got to know Annie over the past 2-3 years, but it seemed like we'd known her forever. Annie especially befriended my mother, Evelyn Hill of Elora, Tennessee, now age 85, by calling her "grandma," which was so endearing. Annie visited mother in rehabilitation after she had a stroke in August of this year, bringing her food and flowers. Annie was also our family's special guest at my parent's 60th wedding anniversary dinner, in 2008. Annie was a unique person, and mother often referred to her as "bright-Annie." She will be sorely missed, but the light she radiated so generously to others still reflects around our community, and the world. Michael D.

신은 치료가 일 것이 아닐 때, 당신을 피로하게 해 얻는 보았다. 이렇게 그는 당신의 주위에 그의 팔을, 속삭여, "저"에게 와 감쌌다. 당신에 의하여 당신이 처음부터 끝까지 간 무슨이 가치가 있지 않았다, 그래서 그는 당신에게 나머지를 주었다. 신의 정원은 아름다워야 한다, 왜냐하면 당신은 그 거기 있다. God saw you getting tired, When a cure was not to be. So He wrapped his arms around you, and whispered, "Come to me". You didn't deserve what you went through, So He gave you rest. God's garden must be beautiful, For you are there with Him. May you take comfort in knowing an angel is watching over you. Words cannot even begin to express my sorrow. My prayers are with you and your family.

Dear Hopper Family, I am very sadden by the news of Mrs. Annie. I thought the world of her and you could tell that anyone who knew her felt the same way. She was loved and will be greatly missed and i don't believe anyone will do as good of a job with flowers as she did. I have known her for years due to my brother Michael Loyd who she thought the world of and last year I had the opportunity to work with her at Kroger. She was always giving me flowers that she didn't have a need for anymore and i was always grateful and she was always giving me advice of how to take care of them. I had the opportunity to go see her today one last time and she looked beautiful.

Dear Mr. Hopper, family, and friends of Annie, Please accept my heartfelt sympathy for your loss of such a dear person. I only knew her slightly from talking with her in the floral department at Kroger whenever I was there during her shift. Until I received the Herald Chronicle in the mail today, I knew nothing about her illness and passing on. For several months, I thought I was getting to the store too late to see her. Every time I saw Annie, I was lifted up by her beautiful smile and cheerful conversation. She radiated kindness and caring for others. I can only imagine how terribly you will miss her. My husband and I are members of St. Mary's Convent (Episcopal) Church. I will write Annie's name in our prayer request book, asking the sisters of St. Mary to pray for her soul to rest in peace and for all of you in her family to find comfort as you grieve for her. Sincerely, Kathy Hamman

ALICIA, I AM SO SORRY ABOUT YOUR MOTHER. I KNEW HER FROM KROGERS, AND SHE WAS ONE WONDERFUL PERSON. AS YOU KNOW I JUST LOST MY DAD. THERE IS NO WORDS I CAN SAY TO HELP YOU AT THIS POINT, OTHER THAN I DO KNOW HOW IT FEELS. ALL I CAN SAY IS I AM GREATLY SADDEN THAT YOU AND YOUR FAMILY HAVE TO EXPERIENCE THIS. IT TRUELY HURTS. MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.

Annie was the sunshine of my day when I shopped at Kroger. Her beautiful smile and kind spirit will be sadly missed. Her beauty will be imprinted in many hearts for years to come. She touched my life. Annie had to be an Angel unaware! God be with her family and give them comfort during this difficult time.

I will miss seeing her smiling face at Kroger. She was always so kind and helpful. May you dwell in the happy times and celebrate the good memories.
