January 31st, 2007 – Annie Sundquist!
by Rob Smith, Jr. on Feb.01, 2007, under Caricatures
Annie Sundquist retired from the City or Orlando this week after twnety years.  She had held a few different posts with the City, but her biggest contribution was keeping the William Beardall Senior Center running. So many Orlando senior residents make use of the facility and Annie is the reason they have had so much to do and keep active. I’m not sure what the City can do to keep the Beardall Center running at the speed Annie kept it at. Finding someone so dedicated, motivated and energetic will have the City with an extremely difficult task to fill Annie shoes.
One friend who has benefitted from Annie’s work is Lucile Fair. She’ll joyfully tell you of the writing, paiting and other classes at the Center put together by Annie. Her 99th birthday party was arranged by Annie as was posted here a few days ago.
Here is a caricature I watercolored of Annie. I passed the photo on to her Wednesday. She is a skilled cellist and is moving on to work with The Heuga Center – Where skiing is a main focus. Thus the subject matter of the caricature.
Our best wishes to Annie as she takes her magic on to The Heuga Center!
