To Bill and family, Please accept my deepest condolences on Ann's passing. We worked together for several years in the Selkirk office and had many conversations and laughs which I've always cherished. Outside of work, she always took the time to show my daughter 'quilting tips' at her home on Saturdays, which was very much appreciated. We lost touch over the years but Ann will always be missed and remembered. Take care. - Posted by: Mike Fontaine (MB Environment & Conservation Co-Worker) on: Jan 27, 2020

We extend our deepest condolences to Bill and Kyla and family. Ann was indeed a special person and made going to work each day truly a interesting and fun experience. She had a great sense of humor and a gift for picking out expensive art from the Provincial Parliament Buildings to decorate our new office in Selkirk. Ann was very special and will be missed by all who were fortunate to have associated with her. Arvyn & Tina Gray - Posted by: Arvyn & Tina (Friend and co-worker) on: Dec 31, 2019
