Ann passed away 1 year ago today and as my thoughts relive that very sad day I have realised that through Gods good offices it was for the best to call a halt to her very troubled suffering that was in her life over that period of the last year or so. My life has gone on and although at quite moments I do slip back in time on that day I feel that I am at peace with myself in the knowledge that through all her pain and suffering I did my best for her to make her life as easy as possible in all respects. I have gone onto a new life and I have met somebody else which has eased my pain and find that peace that we all ask for. I do hope and pray that Ann has found eternal peace in her rest and that God is taking very good care of a really nice lady who deserves to be well looked after in her time of rest. God bless you Ann and sleep well, thanks for the few years that we did have and for bringing me to Canada. Sleep in peace forever, love Michael.

It is hard to believe that Ann has been gone for almost a year. An 8am Sunday service never goes by when I don't think of her fondly and miss her faithful and warm presence. We will be remembering her in prayer at our Sunday services this weekend.

I would like to send thanks and good wishes to all the good friend's that my wife Ann knew in her much varied work in Orillia over this past many years. I would like to thank St.David's Anglican-Lutheran Church in Orillia for the service that I have just attended and to name just a few people that gave a very good soul searching service and to place her into God's safe keeping forever.The people that I do thank from the bottom of my heart are Martha,Pam and John and all of the people that stood up and spoke so very well of her kind and thought full way that she went through her life.I do miss her and I will do forever but her pain is over and she is at peace with her mother,one day I will join her till then rest in peace Ann your work is done now it is time to rest the hurt over this last year or so is past,love you lot's for ever and always Ann your husband Michael.

Ann was my jokingly adopted sister, mentor, advocate, friend and manager of Dunn Avenue Properties Inc. She was a pillar of Orillia! Ann was also best friend of my 91 year old Mother, Dorothy Mantyla and best soup maker to my husband, Silvio. Silvio's son, Chris, said to have that lady keep making soup to keep his dad alive with cancer. Her potato and leek soup was the best that although I am not a "french" souper I needed to indulge. It was sooooooooooooooooo good. When I needed help with my Mom, Ann and Michael were there as we lived five hours north. When I needed help moving from Swastika to Orillia to live in my Mom's mobile Ann offered her husband Michael's help. We continue to be indebted. Ann had parkinsons but her energy never faltered to St. Davids Anglican church who recently dismissed her from doing the books for the Church, the Orillia library, the Literacy society, helping Jo Dunbar when her husband passed, helping John the new owner of the property, etc. When I didn't know what to do with 31 year old soaps, shampoos from travelling Ann said she would take them to to homeless. We have lost a sincere human being! And only gone to rest for a short period of time we mourn her deeply but know we need to celebrate "Life"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ann was the first person that I met at St. David's when I came to be interviewed four years ago. She immediately gave me a hug: "I'm a hugger," she said. And she told me numerous times after that she knew from the first moment that I would be coming to St. David's. Ann was always the first person to volunteer for anything needed doing, and she carried out her responsibilities with the utmost care and dedication. She was faithful, warm, and loving. She was loyal and generous. She was an integral part of our community at St. David's and she is deeply missed. I give thanks for her life, her contribution, her witness.

We have known Ann without an E for the past 12 years. We fondly remember the phone calls " it's me" we answered "no it's me". Ann would then ask for permission to speak to Sandy's husband. Sandy would always grant permission. When Ann told us about Michael she was so happy. She had a smile in her heart and on her face you could not displace. When we met Michael we immediately knew why she was so happy. We will miss her kindness and her generous heart. She was a brave and very determined LADY whom we will miss very much. Michael you took special care of this very special LADY. Her life became complete when you reunited with her. Never forget those wonderful times you had together. You both took a giant leap into the unknown and made up for lost time. It was a true pleasure to have known Ann and to have worked closely with her. She will always have a special place in our hearts and we will be keeping and eye on you for Ann. Love Robert and Sandra

Thinking of you Michael in this time of great loss. I will always hold on to the beautiful memories of spending last Christmas morning with you and Ann at St. David's serving breakfast to many in our community who really needed our hospitality, smiles and love on that day. Thanks for being part of that.

Ann and I knew each as teenagers, then drifted apart for many years, but happily got together again five years ago. I left the U.K., moved to Canada and married Ann. We spent the time since getting re-aquainted and enjoying our time together. I am so glad Ann and I had these these last five years with each other, and I will treasure the memories I keep. Love, Michael

We met in 1962[50 years ago]in Manchester, we went our own way both of us married other people but in 2007 we were both put back in touch with each other via my sister Pat on the web.Ann and myself have been so very lucky to have had this last five years with each other it has been good fun although I never did forget her she was allways there in the back of my mind over this last forty or so years. I do thank Ann and the powers that be for allowing us to enjoy this last five years in which we managed to travel across this great country a few time's. Thankyou Ann from the bottom of my heart and God bless you, you are not in pain now and you are at peace. I will go on with you in my mind and heart just as before we met again,God Bless and sleep tight lots of love Michael.

To Michael and Ann's friends I deem it a privilege to have known Ann for the past 12 years. Ann's beautiful smile, lovely English ancent, her caring manner, generosity, her attention to detail (liked to colour code everything), her faithfulness to her church family and her faith speaks well of her. She was a first class lady. I shall always remember her and certainly miss her already. May God be with you as you travel this journey. Jean Phillips

I am Silvio's brother from Timmins and when we came there a couple of weeks ago and we had the pleasure of meeting Ann and you Michael at Silvio and Nancy's. We could not believe when Nancy told us of Ann's passing. It was a shock. Our thought's and prayers go out to you Michael in your time of grief. Also this comes from Cecile Silvios older sister.
