Obituary of Wynann Elinore Theriault

Wynann (Ann) Theriault Passed away Tuesday, June 27, 2023 at Northumberland Hills hospital with her daughter by her side. Ann grew up in Saskatchewan with her two sisters, Bev and Helen and her parents Ivan and Beatrice Brown. She met the love of her life Frank Theriault in the Air Force in Winnipeg MB. They had their only daughter Jackie in 1961. The family left the Armed Forces in 1964 and settled in Oshawa for almost 30 years. Ann was very involved with Girl Guides of Canada, which afforded her many adventures and life-long friendships. She was affectionately known to many in the organization as Mrs T. She worked in Children's Wear at Eatons in the Oshawa Centre for many years. Retirement led Ann and Frank back to Nova Scotia and Frank's hometown of Bridgewater. While living in Nova Scotia, Ann continued to share her Guiding experience as well as her musical talents. She was an amazing piano player who played by ear and had perfect pitch. With the help of The Lunenberg Fiddlers Club, she learned to play fiddle in her 70s and could often be found on stage entertaining communities on the South Shore and at Senior Homes. After her husband Franks death, she bravely made the trek back to Ontario to be close to her daughter and her Port Hope family. She was very proud of her grandchildren and their academic accomplishments. Ann is survived by her daughter Jackie Nicholls(Doug) Grandchildren James and Robin, her sister Bev Obrigewitsch as well as a host of nieces and nephews in Nova Scotia, Saskatchewan, Alberta and BC. She will be greatly missed by many close friends in Ontario and Nova Scotia. Many many thanks from the family to the staff at NHH especially Nurse Practitioners Anita and Dimitri. A heartfelt thank you to Roseglen Village in Port Hope for their efforts in making moms transition from Nova Scotia to Ontario Retirement Living a joyful experience. Friends will be received at the Allison Funeral Home, 103 Mill Street North, Port Hope, Thursday July 6th from 1 pm until time of memorial service at 2 pm.
