Ann Ray

She is lovingly remembered by her daughter Jodi Molinski (Tony) and her son Tim. She was a proud grandma to Sonia, Thomas (Ali), Taylor (Justin) and MacKenzie, and a cherished great-grandmother to Miles. She was predeceased by her beloved husband Tommy and grandson Maxwell, whom she held forever in her heart. She will be greatly missed by her many nieces and nephews, all of whom she loved dearly.

Ann was born and raised in Ottawa, a city she loved throughout her life. She cherished the many opportunities she had to travel over the years, but it was her Irish heritage that held a particularly special place in her heart. Her many trips to Ireland with dear friends brought her great joy and lasting memories.

Ann will be remembered for her sharp wit, her gentle strength, her love for family and friends, and her beautiful spirit that touched everyone who knew her. Her strong faith guided her through life, shaping the kindness, compassion, and grace she shared so freely with others.

The family would like to express their heartfelt gratitude to the staff at the Waterford Retirement Residence, who took such wonderful care of her. They will be forever grateful for the kindness and compassion they showed her over the years.

Friends and family are invited to pay their respects at McEvoy-Shields Funeral Home, 1411 Hunt Club Road, on Wednesday, May 13 from 10:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. A Funeral Mass will be held afterward, at 1:00 p.m. at Blessed Sacrament Parish, 194 Fourth Avenue.
