As a young woman she moved to Winnipeg where she met her husband Harold. They were married in 1947 and started a family. Many wonderful memories were formed over the years at the family cottage in Victoria Beach, MB where family and friends from Victoria, BC gathered. In 1980, Mom and Dad moved to Victoria, BC but continued to spend summers at Victoria Beach. While Ann was an animal lover, she also enjoyed gardening, playing bridge and taking cruises with Dad. Maui was a favourite destination, often shared with family and close friends. The family would like to thank the staff at Sunrise Senior Living in North Vancouver for their care, kindness and compassion over the past three years. A heartfelt thank you to her devoted friend, companion and nurse Marianne Seares. Ann will be dearly missed by her family, as well as all who knew her.
