Raised in Waterloo, Ontario, Ann graduated from the Nursing program at St. Joseph's in London, Ontario in 1953. She worked as a Public Health Nurse in Toronto and in hospitals in South Bend, Indiana. She left nursing when her first son was born to become a full-time mother. This allowed her to achieve what she called her greatest work: raising her four boys. Ann was made an Honorary Alumnus of Wilfrid Laurier University in 1987 in recognition of her many contributions to the institution while John was President there from 1982 - 1992. They spent many happy years and made great friends in Charlottetown and Rice Point, PEI. Ann was also a devoted owner to her many dogs over the years. Special thanks to the staff at Luther Village on the Park, Dr. Yew and the Paramed nurses for their compassionate care and kindness.
