As hard as life was at times, my Annie-Bell, it was that much brighter and more joyous because of you. I miss you so--you and your sisters gave my life its meaning. Daddy and I are with you always; your sisters think of you every day. Wait for us by the rainbow...

Annie was such a kind, caring soul. Lilly (my dog) loved Annie and they communicated on an entirely different level. We will miss Annie and will always remember her fondly.

Asha and the entire Thune family, Loosing someone so close to you in the most gut wrenching this anyone should experience. Know that the strength of your friends and family will aid you in your healing process to come. Stay TOGETHER and stay STRONG then you all will find a way to heal as well as comfort each other. My thoughts and prayers are with you now and in the future. As my late husband said to me " We shall be together forever, see you on the other side"

Asha, you showed such strength and love for you sister as well as your family yesterday. Hold your head high and embrace this challenge as we all know you can.

God bless the entire Thune family.

I can remember meeting Annie and the gang back in 1997 when I first started doing their hair. Oh how overwhelmed I was when I saw she was one of five with all that hair. Annie, would come into the salon either with an attitude, reading a good book, or ready to talk up a good conversation with her sisters. If you ever had the chance to see her ROCK her hairstyles YES, I did them. Down to the short & sazzy hairdo, to the long straight jazzy look, she rock them all and wasn't scared what people thought, she knew she was CUTE. Annie, the girls and I will miss you so so much! And most of all, I will miss our conversations back in forth asking "ARE YOU BURNING" because of the perm on your head. I miss you DEARLY! May God continue to bless the Thune family, Always and Forever Amen!!!
