What did Annie die from?
She wasn't old, she wasn't ill. What gives?
share"A broken heart" is the only answer offered in the film.
shareI should have thought of that. The film is an overblown sudser so that makes sense.

Actually, she was ill. Sarah Jane's treatment of her mother, and behavior was enough to send Annie into deep depression. She seemed awfully ill and melancholy to me; didn't she to you?
Jack's not dead! Jack would never die without telling me, first!
She seemed ill and frail but the nature of her illness was never disclosed.

Annie had quite a wild streak before the film started, and had Sarah Jane. She was quite the wild woman until she found God and turned her life around, but by this time it was too late unfortunately. :-(
lol. I was wondering why Mizz Lora referred to Annie as "the town pump". Thanks for clearing that up for me!

She WAS ill. What are you talking about?
shareI always thought Ann had cancer.
Well, the city's being built and I'm winning this game. So don't interrupt us with trifles.
