So sorry to hear the passing of Miss Fouts. She was a great teacher and was very loved by her students. You all are in my thoughts and prayers.
Miss Fouts was tough yet kind and caring. She loved her students and was a wonderful example to us all. Lots of great memories! Prayers for peace for the family. She will be missed.
Annis was a wonderful lady and a wonderful neighbor. I know that my parents (Carl & Joyce Weaver) treasured her friendship as I have for years. We have many wonderful memories of the Fouts family and enjoyed visiting Annis when we were in the ‘neighborhood’. She will be missed. Our condolences go out to the entire family. Love, Tim & Terry Beck

Ms Fouts was my favorite teacher in high school and she was always very sweet and concerned anout her students. She was an inspiration to so many students she taught! I know she will be missed!!!
What a great lady!
Miss Fouts touched so many lives and made each one feel important. Yes, she taught typing and shorthand and accounting, but she taught us so much more. We learned how to be professionals in a grown up world. She taught us respect - not only for others but also for ourselves. She reminded us that our integrity was just that - ours - and we needed to protect it if we wanted to succeed in a business world. She taught us the importance of humility.
I am sure she never realized how much of an influence she really was to all of her students over the years. She was truly an educator in every sense of the word.
Godspeed, Miss Fouts.
I offer my condolences to the Fouts family and pray for God’s comfort during this time. As a former student of Ms. Fouts, I am grateful for her influence on not only myself but I’m sure on many students she taught. Her instruction helped me choose a college business major which lead to my career in finance.

I remember Mrs. Fouts from my high school days. She was my typing and shorthand teacher back in 1979. She will be truly missed.
To all of the Fouts family we are very sorry for your loss. Annis was a big part of the Weaver family’s lives. Along with Carl & Joyce Weaver we all loved her. She was the best friend and neighbor anyone could ever have. We are sure there was a great celebration in heaven when she arrived. Our condolences and much love: Jimmy & Lynne Weaver and our children and grandchildren.

I’m so sorry to hear of Miss Fouts passing. I had her as a teacher at Flippin High School and she was so sweet and patient. Condolences to all her family and friends.
Mrs. Fouts taught our class how to type at Flippin High School, for which I have always been grateful for. She was a dear, sweet lady to me. My prayers go out to all of her family and friends. God Bless you.
Ms. Fouts was always a favorite teacher of mine! When I learned to type, she took me off the new IBM Selectric II and stuck me on an old manual typewriter because I was fast. The old manual didn’t slow me down. She was always so kind and compassionate! I’m thankful for her influence on my life.
