Born in North Carolina on January 19, 1936, Annette was the cherished daughter of the late Lee and Jenny Robertson.

Annette lived a full and blessed life, dedicating herself to faith, family, and community. As a devoted member of her church, she found joy in worship and fellowship, and her love for the Lord was evident to all who knew her.

Annette married her soulmate, Clarence Beane, and together they raised a beautiful family. Their 70 years of marriage stands as a testament to their enduring love and commitment.

She leaves behind her devoted husband, Clarence; her cherished children: Alan Beane and wife Trudy, Roger Beane and wife Krista, Carla Johnson and husband Greg; and her adoring grandchildren: Charity, Lacey, Nicole, Erica, Courtney, Alison, Christopher, and Tiffani.

She was a nurturing daycare teacher who left a lasting impact on countless young lives. Her warmth and kindness resonated with children and colleagues alike, marking her career with fond memories and lifelong friendships.

Annette was an avid fan of the Atlanta Braves, UNC Tarheels, and Nascar, often sharing her enthusiasm with family gatherings. Her happiest moments were spent surrounded by loved ones, especially her grandchildren, who brought immense joy to her life. Daily conversations with her best friend Mary Sue Hall were among her most treasured routines.
