Annette Marie Brown, 72, of Rogers, Ark., passed away Thursday, Oct. 3, 2013, at Circle of Life Hospice in Springdale, Ark., after a lengthy illness. She was born Sept. 18, 1941, in Harvey, Ill., to Frank Hula and Fannie Polizza Hula. She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband, Durwood Brown; and her great-grandson, Jakob Blain.

Regardless of what was planted in her garden, it turned out beautiful. Annette also loved cooking and baking for her family and friends.
