Obituary for Anna Petrina Andrews
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved Mother, Anna Petrina Andrews (née Di Salvo), on August 29th, 2020, in her 92nd year, at Amica Dundas.
Anna was the cherished wife of the late Ross Gerald Andrews. She was a wonderful, caring mother to their three children, Kathryn, Thomas, and William. She took great pride in her nine grandchildren and five great-grandchildren. She was also a kind mother-in-law and a treasured friend.
Anna herself was a beautiful person, inside and out. She enjoyed relaxing in Muskoka, golfing and curling at Dundas Valley Golf and Curling Club in her younger years, as well as playing bridge, Scrabble, and her daily crossword puzzles. As a young girl, she attended St. Joseph School, as did her nine siblings, then went on to Loretto Academy and Westdale High. Anna became an accomplished bookkeeper, first working at Farrar’s Clothing and then for the family business, Andrews Jewellers. She was later a successful businesswoman in her own right, with her lovely dress shops, ‘Anna’s Fashions’ in Hamilton and Ancaster.
Anna enjoyed volunteer work at Richard Beasley School, serving meals at the special occasion dinners of Wesley Urban Ministries, and especially helping at the Good Shepherd’s Christmas Dinner and Party. In accordance with her wishes, no public service will be held. Cremation has taken place this past week, and she will rest with her family at Holy Sepulchre Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to the Good Shepherd of Hamilton:
