Dear Greg, Nicole, Breanna, Katie, Trelise and Flynn,
Annie was such a loving, bright, happy soul. Annie was always there to help whenever needed. I met Annie through netball. She was so accepting of all people, a true free spirit who gave everything a go, a real team player in her farming life and out their with her children and with you Greg, there every day working by your side. Annie will be sadly missed with her bubbly personality and go get it approach to life. I feel for you Greg, Nicole, Breanna, Trelise & Flynn. Tough times for you all. Remember that Annie will always be there in your hearts to talk to, cry and laugh with, hold those memories close and just walk one day at a time. My deepest heartfelt sympathy on the loss of you beautiful wife, soul mate and mum. Love, Hugs and Prayers to you all xx

Dear Greg, Nicole, Breanna, Katie, Trelise and Flynn,
My deepest heartfelt sympathy on the loss of you beautiful wife, soul mate and mum. Anne-Maree was such a bright, bubbly, positive woman. She always got stuck in to helping with everything that went on at Riversdale School. Her contribution over the years that her and Greg's beautiful children attended was immeasurable. Annie could always be relied on when it came to camps, transport, Home and School, fundraising of every sort and every other school activity. Her huge contribution in supporting the school, and the programs initiated is, and always be deeply valued by me. You were such a committed hard worker Annie. Nothing was ever too much trouble. You will be hugely missed.

Deepest condolences to the Reed and West family, I was saddened to hear of Annie's passing.
I met Annie on our first day of high school, we ended up great friends and spent many weekends driving around Opunake in her dad's ute.
Annie and I shared the same passion of hiking, and we would often message each other about which adventures we had just completed and what we were off to next, I will miss those conversations, and I really wish we had got to complete one together.
Rest in peace Annie xx
