Ann was born in Mahopac, NY on January 26, 1963, a daughter of Ruth M. Westover of Southbury and the late Robert E. Westover Sr. A graduate of Pomperaug High School, she worked in the warehouse at Pitney Bowes of Newtown until 2008. She most enjoyed her role as a wife, mother, and more recently a grandmother. Ann is survived by her husband, Scott Gagner; three children, Jessica Ciskey, Jason Gagner, and Lauren Gagner; one grandson, her "bambino," Nicholas Leddy; her mother, Ruth Westover; her sister, Gail Westover; and her brother, Robert E. Westover Jr. A Memorial Service will be held on Wednesday November 16, 2011 at 6:30pm in the Honan Funeral Home, 58 Main Street, Newtown. Friends may call from 5:00pm until the start of the service. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations in Ann's name be made to the Smilow Cancer Hospital at Yale New Haven Hospital, 323 Cedar Street, PO Box 208028, New Haven, CT 06520.

You have always been such a caring person. The first time I met Ann was when she took care of my aunt. I'll never forget how I jump onto Ann's blazer in my yellow shirt and smiley pj and wouldnt get off!! It was a moment that I got Ann and her sister Gail to laugh! Great times!

Rest in Peace Ann...
