Ann was a lifelong member of St. Benedict's Church and a CWL member.  She loved knitting and was generous in donating her lovely hand work to family, friends and church bazaars. She enjoyed playing bridge and pool aerobics. She enjoyed travelling with Edward in their younger years and was a wonderful hostess both at home and their cottage on Cameron Lake. She loved watching sports especially curling, tennis and golf. Mom was the banquet manager at the Canterbury Inn for many years. After moving to Bluewater County in 1999 she along with Edward enjoyed hosting many events in the hall and forming new friendships that lasted to this day.  Special thanks to her dear neighbours and friends that looked out for her during the last few years.  Many thanks to Dr. Lilly and the nurses in Palliative Care who treated mom with dignity and tenderness.
