The family that called me by my formal name. She was fair and strict but was easy to laugh when things were funny. Our hearts go out to you all. Loss was in stages and numerous however the final loss is the hardest May all the bright memories and the love she shared surround you at this time. Love you guys!

Lynn Stewart - November 16, 2024

So sorry for your loss. Loosing a mother can change who you are. I remember Ann as a gracious woman with a great laugh. She was so welcoming to my sister & I when we would "drop in" to see Wayne (cousin) & her at their home and at the room at the retirement home . It felt that we did not get together very often as families but I certainly looked forward to seeing all of you when I could. Ann will be greatly missed.

Tracia Finlay Watson - November 15, 2024

I am so sorry for your loss, Kim and Cathy. I have fond early memories of your mum as Snowy Owl, and later, of times spent in the warmth of her company chatting in Barrie and Colborne. She was such a kind and caring woman who had the most remarkable laugh and has left her mark on many. May you find solace and strength in your beautiful memories. Sending hugs and so much love 💕

My deepest condolences for your loss. Ann was a one of my favorite aunts with a great sense of humor. As a young girl I spent time with Ann and Wayne babysitting their daughter Alana. I learned many life lessons from her. She was always so giving and was a great mentor. We will miss her . .

Trista Weiler - November 12, 2024

Dear Nana, you are and will continue to be a wonderful grandmother, mother, friend and partner to me and many others. I remember the times we'd walk to the nearby playground and how the plastic slide was to hot for us to go down. I remember sitting on your carpeted floor and admiring your pretty chandeliers. My favorite memory being when I'd sit on the porch with you and Papa feeding the squirrels peanuts and laughing at how funny their cheeks looked. I will continue to cherish these memories as it is part of who I am, a thankful grand child of Ann Catherine. I will forever see your bright blue eyes in the sunny sky knowing you are still here watching over us all. Love you loads Nana, Trista.

Juliana Asamo - November 10, 2024

Dear Ann Catherine's Family, I am deeply saddened by the passing of Ann. She was one of the most loving souls i know in seasons Retirement Community, and her kindness left a lasting impact on me. When I first joined Seasons, her warmth and acceptance made me feel truly welcomed, even when others didn’t. Despite the way i speak my English language she never sees is as a barriers, she never let them stand in the way; she tried to listened to me and even ask me to repeat myself if she can hear. she cared, and she always made me feel valued. She was never hesitant to express her love and appreciation, and her 'thank yous' felt like gifts of their own. For me Helping her was not only a joy, but it felt like being with family. My colleagues said he is my grand ma. She taught me so much about acceptance and kindness, and I am eternally grateful to have served her. With all my heart, I will miss her. Ann was a gift to everyone around her, and her memory will live on in the kindness she shared. With heartfelt condolences and love, Juliana Ronke Asamo The African girl

Nigel Weiler - November 8, 2024

Ann, or Nana as I knew her, was a wonderful grandmother and friend of mine. I remember visiting her in the summer and sitting outside feeding the neighbourhood squirrels, a simple memory but it means a lot to me. I just wish I could do it one last time. But now I’ve got to let her go on her way to wherever she’s gone. One things for certain though, it’s going to be a gloriously wonderful place and I know she’s going to be watching us with Wayne from wherever they may be. Rest in Peace Nana, I’ll miss you.
