Annette is preceded in death by her parents, Doyle and Katherine Gibbs, her only brother Billy Gibbs, her loving husband Edward Haney, and her only child Sterling Rogers. Annette is survived by her grandchildren, Jay and Ava Rogers of Benton, Ark., William Jibas (Raquel) of Bella Vista, Ark., and Angie Jibas, daughter-in-law Brooke Rogers of England, Ark., niece Edie Gibbs Friese (Steven) of Hot Springs, Ark., cousin (who she considered more like a sister) Betty McKnight of Little Rock, Ark., and several other great-nieces, great-nephews, cousins, and dear friends. Prior to her passing, she hosted a celebration of life at her home with friends and family. To honor Annette's wishes her ashes will be dispersed at a later date, along with her husband Edwards, in a private service of close friends and family.
