Annie was the youngest daughter of Philips and Evangeline Wheeler. She was born in the farmhouse of their 80 acre dairy farm.
She graduated from Wrentham Public Schools and worked at the Wrentham State School and Foxboro Company before her marriage to Ernest Larsen March 1, 1951.
She had four children:
Cynthia born Feb 26, 1952
Kathleen born Oct 25,1954
Michael born Dec 20,1956
John born Oct 14, 1962
Annie enjoyed gardening, sewing and crocheting, playing her acoustic guitar, rooting for all the Massachusetts professional sports teams, swimming and sunning by her backyard pool, and traveling.
She enjoyed children and was a gentle, loving mother, grandmother and great-grandmother.

Around age 65, she developed the wet-type macular degeneration, which left her partially blind, and so her activities became more and more restricted. In spite of that, she continued to care for her husband, who had a chronic debilitating disorder and had become wheelchair bound.
In the summer of 2006, she suffered two small strokes which left her weakened. In May 2007, she collapsed at home, and later found out that what she thought was a lingering respiratory infection was in fact lung cancer, which had metastasized.
She spent a brief period of time in the hospital and nursing home before coming home, where she passed away in the early hours of July 4th.
She left her husband, four children, several grandchildren and three great grandchildren.
She was greatly loved and greatly missed.
