I'm a 66 year old male who used to watch the Mickey Mouse Club. I, like many others, was in love with Annette. She was wholesome and not a liberal Democrat.
Beautiful person, inside & out.
RIP, Annette.
God Bless her and her family. I believe Heaven just received an angel.
God Bless and rest in peace. A lovely, kind, and beautiful person...
