Ann grew up on a farm on Lapland Road in Waterville where she often talked about running through the fields barefoot helping her father. She was married twice and had four children that she raised alone at her home on Burt Road in Waterville. She was a hard worker, she worked over the years being a cook at Smugglers' Notch Inn and the Long Trail Tavern. Most of her years she was a housekeeper at Smugglers' Notch Resort. She was proud of her home and had a green thumb both in her gardens and house plants. She enjoyed doing puzzles and was quite good at doing them. What made her smile the most was when friends and family stopped by to play cards or dice. She lived a good, simple and happy life.
A special thank you is extended to everyone that came to visit and spend time with her in her final days. A special thank you to Meagan Robidoux that supported the family in giving the best care that we possibly could.
