To Ann's family My sincerest condolences on the passing of your beloved mother. Sid and I met Ann and Ike when they first came from Montreal and remained friends for a number of years until we lost touch. In recent years Ann and I reconnected and had some lovely lunches together. May your family know no more sorrow.

To the Hurwitz family, Ann was one of a kind. Growing up as kids, going to her house with Karen was always a highlight. Learning Mahj as adults. Ann was a great teacher! Ann, Thank you for always being the "cool mom". Love ❤️ Kathi
