Condolences to her family. I had many good times with her riding the school bus to Agate Bay. Always friendly.

I have a very sweet 30-year-old memory of Ann from the memorial gathering of my beloved mother-in-law, Elaine Shumway. It was the first time I really had spoken to Ann, and she took a liking to our young son, Colin and played outside with him and cheered him up after the loss of his grandma. This was such a loving thing to do as I was feeling sad and trying to be a good hostess, but also had a Colin's new baby sister, Emily, to attend to. Ann really lightened my load that day and brightened all of our spirits. I so remember Ann's smile, laughter, sparkling eyes, and kind support over all the years. She will be missed by so many in our community and I know there is a deep hole in many hearts. Holding her family members in my heart. Rest in peace, Ann, and thank you for the love you put out in the world.

Dear Dan and Robbie,
I thought I´d shared condolences but guess it didn´t go through. Anyway, I´m sorry for your loss of such a dynamic sister. The picture shown is the face that I remember at every encounter with this joyful sweet gal. What a treat to be in one of her social circles and not a minute wasted. All in all, a life well lived to the benefit, love and laughter of so many others.

Our life journeys have crossed so many times over the years and I value each memory. I hope your transition was peaceful and you felt the love generated by your kind and loving soul. Rest in peace, Ann.

So sorry to hear of Ann's passing. Have fond memories of us growing up together at the lake & trying to keep up w/the boys in the 'hood. Lost touch w/her as we grew up & entered our teenage years but kept somewhat abreast of her life through social media & small town acquaintances. May her brothers & children find peace & comfort in the knowledge that Ann has passed on to her glorious new life. You're in my prayers, Sally
