Annette O'Brien Doom Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Annette Doom, 61, lost her 13-year fight with cancer on the 26th of January, 2022. Annette was born to Hershel O'Brien and Emma Jean Salcedo of Visalia on January 29, 1961. She was a graduate of Mt Whitney HS, class of '79. She was married May 10, 2004 to the love of her life, Vincent Doom, and was a devoted and loving wife to him for 18 years. Annette is survived by her children Colby (Courtney) Vincent, of Las Vegas, Cody Vincent of Columbus, GA, Callie (Sean) Mendoza of Paso Robles, and Beau Doom of San Diego. She had five adored grandchildren, whom she absolutely loved; Kira 8, Camdyn 8, Chase 5, Talayeh 4 and Marley 3. Annette is survived by her parents Herschel and Emma Jean O'Brien, brothers Rick (Debbie), Robert (Kathy) and the older sister she never had, her dear aunt Janet (Mike) Banks, all of Visalia. She worked for Linder Equipment Company in Tulare for 23 years. She loved the smell of fresh cut grass, and the sight of clean orchard rows. Scrapbooking, craft working and travel were her favorite things to do. Hawaii was her favorite place to be. Annette loved playing on club softball teams and was delighted that her children and grandchildren carried on with that enthusiasm; she loved the sound of a baseball cracking off a bat and cheering louder than anyone in the crowd when her kids got a good hit, even when her kids were embarrassed by it. Annette had the most glorious hair, and was devastated when it began to fall out from her 5th out of 7 rounds of treatment. She was so proud of her two sons' service in the Air Force and Army and her daughter's growing medical career. Annette was preceded in death by her beloved first husband, Steven Vincent in 2000, her grandparents, Golda and Jack O'Brien and her recently deceased uncle Jerry. Annette fought harder, loved deeper and lived fuller than anyone. "Nothing is more important than family and God". We love Annette so much, but she loved us more. She will be truly missed by all. Memorial Services will be held on February 12th , from 10 am to Noon. A private graveside interment will be scheduled at a later date. Services have been entrusted to Salser and Dillard Funeral Chapel. Memorial Tributes and condolences may be offered by visiting www.salseranddillard.com
