Annette Woolstenhulme Stanton

It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of our beloved Annette Stanton, who left us on August 17, 2026. Annette was born on August 26th, 1957, in Denver, CO to Clyde and Lorraine Woolstenhulme. Annette grew up in Germantown, TN, where she graduated from Ridgeway High School in 1974. After finishing high school, she went to Utah to pursue her education at Southern Utah University.

While attending Southern Utah University, she met her first husband, Jeffrey Carter. Together, they had many life experiences and were blessed with five daughters and one son, whom they loved dearly.

In 2012, she reunited with and married the love of her life, Joe Stanton, whom she met when they were only 9 years old in Memphis, TN, and gained 4 bonus children. She was a devoted wife to her husband, Joe Stanton, with whom she shared countless memories and adventures.

Annette's love for her children knew no bounds; she dedicated her life to nurturing and supporting them as they pursued their dreams. As a proud grandmother, she cherished every moment with her grandchildren, filling their lives with her warmth and unwavering love, whether it was through storytelling or simply basking in their smiles. She left an everlasting mark on their hearts.

Annette was a vibrant soul whose laughter echoed through every room she entered, leaving joy in its wake. A gifted singer, Annette, expressed her vibrant personality through singing. She was also a successful businesswoman. She was an entrepreneur and started several businesses, some of which include a landscaping/sprinkler business, an entertainment business, an auto repair/tire shop, and a chimney cap business. She was also an amazing cook for her family and friends.

Annette was truly loved by all who had the pleasure of knowing her, and her legacy of love, laughter, and creativity will live on in our hearts. As we gather to celebrate her extraordinary life, we invite you to join us in remembering the beautiful moments we shared.

Funeral services will be held on Monday, August 24th, at Anderson and Sons Mortuary Lone Peak Chapel at 11 AM, where we will come together to honor Annette's remarkable journey and the light she brought into our lives. A viewing will be held on the same day of services from 9:45-10:45 AM in the same building, and all are welcome to share their cherished memories as we remember a truly wonderful woman.
