In the early 80’s while on a regular visit to the “Eagle Lounge ”after the snack bar was closed for the night, she met her future husband (Terry Bushey ) whom she was married for 33 years. Although she had no children, she had many nieces and nephews whom she spoiled rotten. She didn’t mind expressing her thoughts but always with a smile. As a mainstay of the family who rarely left home, her and Terry would look after taking care of all the family’s requests such as Family Tree (Christmas), donations to friends and family funerals and other things on behalf of the family. Annie and Terry lived in the family home to help look after “Maw” after “Pap” passed away, either spending time in the cabin or regular trips to St. Anthony to pick up the Grenfell mats. She always loved to have someone in and have a good game of cards and maybe cheat a little bit to have a good laugh. During the last 15 years she has had various sickness but she always kept a positive attitude and was a happy person.
