Ann passed peacefully, in the midst of her 66th year, at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre, surrounded by her family. She is survived by her husband of 44 years Bill (William), sons Graham (Victoria) and Gavin, her granddaughter Stephanie Ann, and her beloved puppy, Hudson.
Ann graduated from the Nightingale School of Nursing in 1976 and dedicated the next 45 years of her life to the field. She was a nurse to her core and always gave of herself to care for others until her illness stopped her. She loved gardening, golf, swimming, her Cavalier King Charles pups, and shopping for literally anything. And she loved her family.
Ann was generous beyond words, had a laugh that reverberated through the room, and was fiercely loyal to her family and friends. Diagnosed with stage IV in March 2014, she bravely fought against neuro endocrine carcinoma with everything she had for more than 7 years before finally losing her battle.
She will be greatly missed by her family (both immediate and extended), friends, and the numerous people she touched during her remarkable life. Rest in Peace, Mom. We will treasure our many memories of you.
