Ann was born in Long Branch, NJ, on December 25, 1935. She was the youngest of three children born to Hatty and Jules Bouvier. Ann passed away peacefully with her family by her side on April 27, 2026.
Ann found her true calling in nursing, and she was known by colleagues and patients alike as one of the very best. She also had a wonderful "crafty" side, enjoying everything from wood refinishing and sewing to acrylic and tole painting. She loved spending time working in her yard and was famous for making the best bread and butter pickles in the family.
Ann is survived by her husband, Joseph Grzelka; her son, William Darby; and her daughters, Joanne Tolisano and Diane Lynn, and Joseph’s sons Michael Grzelka, Kevin Grzelka, and Joey Grzelka. She also leaves behind eight grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren. She is deeply missed by many, including her loyal little canine companion, Toby.
