She was predeceased by her brother-in-law Joe Gibel and his wife Anne. Ann was born in Ottawa and moved to Nova Scotia with her parents and sisters. At the age of sixteen she moved to Toronto to complete her degree in nursing at the University of Toronto.

 

She worked in community nursing with St. Elizabeth’s and later in geriatric rehabilitation at Sunnybrook Hospital.

 

Ann was married to the late Andrew Gibel for more than 25 years and together they raised their son in Toronto.

 

After retirement Ann moved to Brighton, Ontario where she lived some of her happiest years. Ann returned to Ottawa in 2019 to spend time with her family.

 

A special thanks to The Ottawa Hospital, the Peterborough Regional Health Centre, and Lord Lansdowne for the compassionate care they provided over the past five years.
