Ann was born in Windsor, Ontario, on August 11, 1942, a daughter of the late William Adams and the late Grace Brush Adams. Ann was a caregiver for the sick and elderly.

She was known affectionately to her family as "Grammie"........ Besides her parents, a son, Billy Schafer, had also preceded her in death. Ann was a member of House of Prayer Interdenominational Church.
