In 1985 they missed farming so went farming again, this time five miles North of Weyburn. Then in 2002 they decided to make the move back to Weyburn. Annabelle was a hard working home maker who grew a large garden and canned and froze vegetables and fruit all summer long so her family would be provided for the coming year. Her home was always neat as a pin and when company came there was always a welcome and plenty of food and hospitality. One of her greatest joys was spending time with her grandchildren and great grandchildren. Whenever they needed her she was always there. Annabelle also enjoyed her curling and the Atlanta Braves.
