Together, they purchased a business from Harry Tretiak along the old #5 highway. In 1956, they built a new service station and grocery store in Rama, along the new #5 highway. There, Annie worked managing the grocery part of the business, while Willie took care of the service station. They ran their business until Willie’s passing in 1987, where she then moved into a house in Rama where she resided until her passing.
