She adored her nieces and nephews, and thoroughly enjoyed being with them while they grew up.

Ann leaves to cherish her memory her mother, Katherine; two brothers, Stephen (Patricia) Borovitcky of Youngstown and Michael (Sherry) Borovitcky of Boardman; and four nieces and a nephew, Donna (Christian), Stephanie (Casey), Kevin (Ashley), Michelle, and Nicole.

Annie will be truly missed by all who knew and loved her.
