She was 96 years old, having been born on February 5, 1922, on Stoney Creek in Carter County Tennessee. She was the last living child of six children of William Ballard White and Flora Rains White. Annice married Thomas Price after Clinton died.

Clinton, Annice and Tom were all members and close friends from the Unaka High School class of 1940. She had a positive, "can do" outlook and was always a leader in church, school and community. Annice was a member of the Poplar Grove Baptist Church before moving her membership to First Baptist of Elizabethton after she and Tom moved to town. At Poplar Grove, she taught Sunday School, sang in the choir, directed scores of Christmas pageants and either directed or helped with nearly every Vacation Bible School while her children were growing up. She and Tom continued to dedicate time, talent and resources to Poplar Grove and First Baptist before she moved to Maryville after Tom died.
