Ann knew how to enjoy life, she loved to go dancing, laugh, play cards, laugh, travel, laugh, go shopping, laugh, play the slots, laugh, drink coffee with friends, and laugh.
She taught by example, Ann was a loving daughter, daughter-in-law, aunt and sister. She was there for whatever her parents and in-laws needed, especially in their final years.
Ann also regularly visited the sick and elderly throughout the community and she volunteered for many organizations.
Ann was a devoted Catholic and a member of St. Patrick's Catholic Church of Imperial for many years. Her faith kept her strong throughout her life.
