Ann-Elies was born and raised in Sault Ste. Marie, ON. She attended Cody Public School and Technical & Commercial High School.

Ann-Elies and Ken moved to Kitchener in 2002 to be closer to family. Ann-Elies had a vibrant social life. She enjoyed hiking, aquafit and golfing. She was an active member of the St. Mark’s Lutheran Church, becoming a member of Stephen Ministry and performing home communion, and then becoming a member of Trillium Lutheran Church. She also volunteered in the day surgery at the GRH for many years. Her family and friends were always priority in her life. So many circles of friends from her church, her apartment building, her walking group and many others she met along the way. She remembered birthdays, was always ready to listen and check in on a friend. She had a very giving heart. She had a wonderful sense of humour and a cheeky smile. Always up for an adventure and never missed an opportunity to socialize. The last few years, her cat, Percy brought her a lot of joy and companionship. She also loved her grand-dogs, a feeling greatly reciprocated. She will be missed by so many; she made a difference in everyone’s life she touched.

Cremation has taken place. Plans regarding a Celebration of Life will happen in the future. To celebrate & honour her life, donations to the Trillium Lutheran Church (Waterloo) or Save Me Dog Rescue are requested by the family.
