Ann was born and raised in the South Side of Pittsburgh before marrying Regis and moving to Beechview where she was a resident for 60 years. She was a loving and gentle woman who followed the wishes of our Lord and spent her life taking care of others. She was a stay at home Mom until her children were older at which time she worked as a waitress for 20 years for the Duquesne Club where she served professionals, politicians and celebrities. She had many interests including cross stitch, cooking and baking delicious cookies, football and playing the lottery. She will be greatly missed by all those she loved and who loved her. The family would like to extend a special thanks to Bridges Hospice for the gentle and loving care they provided during the brief time they took care of Ann.
