Born on October 15, 1932 in Brooklyn, NY, she was the daughter of Philip and Theresa (Gatto) Schiera.
Ann worked in Manhattan at a young age for a company formerly known as Scantlin Electronics (now Dow Jones) providing the NY and Chicago commodity markets with bid and ask prices.

A family statement reads: “Ann devoted her life to caring for others, and she loved and worried about her family and friends. During her retirement days, she provided personal daily care for her sister and brother as well as for her best friend. She was also part of a program that would call other seniors “stuck at home” on a weekly basis. She was loved and respected by all who knew her.”

Wynne of Fort Pierce, FL; her granddaughters, Christina Wynn and her husband John Wynn of Newburgh and Diane Briscese and her partner Tom McClure of Pine Bush; by her great grandchildren: Laney Travers, RN, Brandon Wynn, Makayla Wynn and Dylan Marberger.
