Annie began working for Norris Bakery at the Old Kitchener Market and also St. Mary's High School. When Forest Heights Collegiate opened in 1964, she greatly enjoyed planning and equipping the new cafeteria kitchen and then managing it and cooking for students and staff until 1977 when she retired. Cooking was always a pleasure for her and she prepared many delicious meals for family gatherings, church groups, and summer camp groups. She also expressed her creativity through dressmaking, porcelain dolls, quilting, watercolour art, and china painting. Throughout the years, she wrote many anecdotes and stories of her early years, which were then compiled by her granddaughter Julia Gingrich in a memoir called "Stories from the Farm". Annie was a dedicated and active member of Bethany Evangelical Missionary Church in Kitchener. Her participation and leadership in many areas of church life was a demonstration of her strong faith.
