Ann "Annie" Ivey

NASHUA—Ann McLaughlin Ivey, age 77, passed away at St. Joseph Hospital in Nashua, on February 27, 2019, surrounded by her loving family.  

Born in Thornhill Johnstone, Scotland, on August 13, 1941, she was a daughter of the late James and Catherine (Barr) McLaughlin.  Following her education, after raising her children, Annie went on to become a nursing assistant, working at Life Care Center in Billerica, and was CSM for Walmart in Tewksbury, Mass for many years.

In her free time, Annie loved to crochet, knit, tend to her plants and cook for family gatherings.  She also enjoyed going to the beach when she was able and people watching while there.  Traveling was a passion of Annie’s, whether it was to the beach or just taking a drive in the car, she enjoyed getting out and sightseeing.  Above all else though, Annie loved her family.  Watching her beautiful children and grandchildren grow was one of her life’s greatest joys!
