"Ann Wilson, born Eleanor Ann Arrigan, passed away Tuesday, September 20, 2016. She was born October 24, 1940 in Honesdale, PA to Thomas Patrick Arrigan and Stella Josephine Zielinski.
Ann began her family in Missouri and moved back to Pennsylvania to raise her 3 daughters. She lived her life surrounded by the large family that she cultivated, and lit up at every visit, or even the mere mention of, her grandchildren and great grandchildren.
She was exceedingly generous, affectionate, and let her wicked sense of humor shine through just often enough to remind you that she was always one step ahead of you. Nanny, as we called her, was adored by her family and will be dearly missed.
Ann is survived by:
Her daughter Debbie Bertsche and husband Arnie, and her children, Lindsay Conklin and fiancé Patrick Batsford, Kacie Post and husband Dan, and Jace Conklin;
Her daugher Janet Edwards and her children, Ryan Langan and fiancée Reesha Grosso, Stephen Aleckna, Jamie Aleckna, and Jonathan Aleckna;
Her daughter Terry Stout and husband Phil, and their children Tara Stout and Leigh Ann Stout, fiancé Robert Hanley, and children Tyler Leeds and Benjamin Hanley;
Her brother William Arrigan and family, and relatives in Ireland. She is predeceased by siblings Rose, Michael, and Veronica.
Services will be private at the convenience of the family.
Cremation took place in the Lake Region Crematory, Lake Ariel.
Arrangements by the James Wilson Funeral Home, Lake Ariel."
