Ann had a true entrepreneurial spirit. She ventured into ownership of a weekly magazine, a screen printing business and investment real estate where she had great joy listening to people and trying to help them in any way she could. As a young woman she was a fashion model and worked for the IRS. Ann enjoyed going to flea markets and auctions, collecting art and listening to classical music. She was a lifelong animal lover. She also deeply loved Christmas and the holiday season. But her greatest joy in life was her family for whom she enjoyed cooking traditional Pennsylvania Dutch food, and Italian recipes particularly for her husband.

Klinger and his spouse Philip Costello of New York City, and Jeffrey A.

Herb and her spouse Jack of Hegins PA; along with several nieces and nephews.
