  1. I’ve known Annette for over 30 plus years, we started at Boeing in 1986 in the Warehouses, when I moved into Management 20 plus years ago Annette was one of my employees. We shared alot of good times at work and some hard times but through it all Annette was strong and a very dependable person. She is missed not only as an employee that I could count on but a friend who had my back through our journey with Boeing / Spirit. My Sincerest Condolences to your family. God Bless, Mark Jarman

  2. To the family of Annette,

    So sorry for your recent loss. I have fond memories of us all water skiing and cooking out at the lake in the summers. It was always fun to hang out with the Gettings family. Annette was such a vital part of that. May she rest in peace.

  3. I worked with Annette for a short time in kitting at Spirit.
    Always had a smile on her face and was very helpful while I was in kitting.
    Although small in stature, she could handle the skins very effectively.
    God bless her.

  5. My sincere condolences to the family.
    So many good memories over the last 40 plus years.I will miss our visits and dinner outings.Through good times and bad, our friendship prevailed. What gave Annette the most joy was talking about her son Briley. She was so proud of him and his many accomplishments. The unwavering love she had for her mother was shown through her frequent visits and care she gave to her.
    My dear friend, you will be very missed!❤️
