It was the perfect way to move along from this life. At home on a Saturday afternoon, Mum listened to music with friends, then closed her eyes and went to sleep.
Ann turned 82 on September 11. Mum always loved to celebrate her birthday, and those who loved her responded! Once again, she was spoiled with cards, treats and visits with friends and family. It was a very good birthday celebration.
Mum’s home was Bethania. She loved spending time outdoors there. The garden area was her favorite place. She enjoyed watching the fish, tending her flowers, picnicking and listening to classic stories from her childhood. Some of her most treasured times were watching her great grandchildren play. Grandma Ann and the kids made everlasting memories together.
Ann had a long, full life filled with love, generosity and kindness. She has made a permanent impression on many, many hearts. We will miss our beautiful grandma, auntie, friend—our mum.
You are invited to join us at Bethania in the chapel area (1045 Concordia Avenue) on Wednesday, September 26 at 1:30 p.m. to remember and celebrate a life well lived.
