Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time.

Ms Annie was a sweet sweet lady, she always smiled and said Rex was her special friend and always said “ is he being good??” With a clever smile!! I loved her never ending adoration for her beloved Jerry, she always gushed about how much she loved that mani!! Her adoration and love for Jesus showed on her face no matter what… We will miss you, sweet Annie, but we will meet again!! Love you dearly

Sweet Annie will be missed until we meet again.Michael Horner and I will continue to pray for Uncle Jerry and the family for Gods Peace and comfort for each of you. We have so many precious memories of fun times shared with Annie and family that we will cherish. Blessings and peace for the family and friends who miss Annie and her sweet smile. It's just a little while until we meet again. Love to Uncle Jerry and the family.

Annie was one of my favorite people she mentored me in understanding the baptism of Holy Spirit. The womens Bible study she had on Thursday mornings in Tulsa connected many believers. Everyone will miss this bright shining star and her joyful laughter.

We met the Horner's in 1995 at church. I can't express how lucky we were to have done so. Annie's son, Bart, became one of the best friends a man could ever have. When we moved away from Virginia, Annie and Jerry sent us on our way with so much furniture, pretty much giving us the things a young married couple, with two young boys, needed. To this day, we still have a few items. I think about her often as I get my socks out of my old dresser drawers. I recall her saying, put that on the truck too. We still have the dining room table and chairs stored in our garage. I saw it today and thought of her. Such a beautiful memory from a beautiful woman.Thank you, Annie, for loving and caring about so many people during your life. But most of all, thank you for giving me an unbelievable friend, your son Bart and of course Pattie and the kids. We love them all so much.We will be thinking of the entire Horner family. We love you all.John & Kelly WooleyThe photo was taken in 1995 when we all lived in Virginia.

Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

I love and miss you Mom. You were an incredible Mother, role model, and inspiration. I am proud to be your son.

Dr Horner I am praying for you and your family. I enjoyed singing with Ms Annie in the Amen Choir and also all the game nights playing Mexican Train. I remember the last time I saw her and we were eating and she kept telling me about that beautiful ring you had bought her she was really proud of it. She was loved by everyone and she is going to be missed.Dr Horner I am praying for you and your family. I enjoyed singing in the Amen Choir with Ms Annie and all the Friday nights playing Mexican Train with yall. I remember the last time I saw her we were eating dinner and she was showing me that beautiful ring you had given her and how proud of it she was and her nails that had been done. She was loved by everyone and sure will be missed.
