Ann was a loving spouse who cherished her time in service and volunteering to others while traveling and being with her daughters and grandchildren. Born in Louisville, Ky, she graduated from Sacred Heart Academy, and also the University of Kentucky. After graduation she taught elementary school. Mrs. O’Bryan lived most of her life in the Chicago area before moving to Naples in 2007. She never met a stranger and enjoyed spending time with her family and friends everywhere she lived.
