Ann was a member of the Bethany Evangelical Lutheran Church in Sheffield.  She retired from Osram Sylvania in Warren, Pa after 31 years of service.  Ann enjoyed relaxing by reading and quiet time alone.  She thoroughly enjoyed going for rides with Terry on their motorcycle.  She looked forward to their trips to Florida.  Especially at Easter time when she, Terry, and many others were able to witness the outdoor baptism service from Lady of Our Lord Church in Daytona Beach.

Ann will be greatly missed and fondly remembered by her husband, sisters, her many friends and the Sheffield community.

Left behind to cherish Ann’s memory are her husband Terry J. Cochran at home, her two sisters, Nancy L. (Rick) Hite of Fair Oaks, PA and Donna M. (Matt) Kirsch of Sheffield, as well as many nieces and nephews.  Ann is further survived by her faithful companion, Ruby.
