Annabel is survived by her three children: Deborah Page (Doug) of Shelby, Jeffery Davis (Leslie) of Shelby, and Lucinda Davis-Kettner (Benjamin) of Delaware. She was a proud grandmother to four grandchildren: Makayla Peters (Dustyn), Orion Page (Hannah), Kairi Kettner, and Kaylee Kettner, and a great-grandmother to Lakelyn Peters and Chandler Peters and sister to Murma White.

She also leaves behind her two beloved cats, Abby and Shilo, who were like family to her.

A private graveside service will be held at Western Carolina State Veterans Cemetery in Black Mountain, North Carolina.
