There is a huge hole in the soul of this family today. But she left us the tools to fill it. She found miracles in the simplest of moments. She didn’t need music to dance to. She taught us not to wait for adventure to find you. “Go find it. It is everywhere.’ And we will find it.

Our thoughts are with her family and friends. A GoFundMe was set up for Wersching’s family:
This Go Fund Me is for her. So that Steve has time to grieve without the pressure of having to work. So he can be dad to Freddie (12), Ozzie (9) and Archie (4) as they navigate the future without their mother and without sweet Annie. So they can keep going to baseball games (Go Cardinals!), take music lessons, and play little league. It’s supposed to help pay for college. So that Steve Annie can continue the tradition of filling the house with any life size balloon that fits in the car on birthday mornings. It’s designed to give them time to get on with life as a family of four without having to pay medical bills or funeral expenses. So they can continue to live the life they know would make Annie proud.
Everyone loved Annie. All. But as much as we loved her, she loved her boys even more. Let’s help care for them.
