Ann was a member of the United Methodist Church where she served on numerous committees and formed many lifelong friendships.

Ann and her husband, Loren, enjoyed many fishing trips to Canada as well as 15 years with her parents to O’Sullivan Lake where they caught, cleaned, and ate Walleye for lunch and dinner for 6 days straight. In their later years, they fished at Ramsey Lake in Eastern Ontario with their family and friends.

In October 2019, they moved to an assisted living facility in Madison, Alabama, where both of their daughters live. They said at the time that it was the smartest move they ever made.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to the Menominee County Library in honor of Ann’s love of reading.
