December 9,1934 – February 8, 2014
Ann (Betty to her family) was born in Coronation, AB and resided in Ontario and Germany before settling in the Comox Valley in 1969.
She leaves behind her brother Don Thomson (Margaret) of Edmonton; numerous nieces, nephews and many very special friends. Ann was predeceased by a brother and two sisters as well as her much loved animals – a horse named Trixie and very special dogs Sally and Helga.
Ann worked for many years at the Valley News and was an avid reader. She was an active community member and looked after booking Royston’s Community Hall for many years. She belonged to a quilting club, a cribbage club and her favourite, a garden club. She was involved in organizing many garden plant sales at the Royston Hall. She loved her flowers and entered competitions and won many ribbons to attest to her talent.
At Ann’s request, there will be no funeral.
