Ann Carmela Stratton was born on April 1, 1952, in Kingsley, IA, the daughter of Robert and Patricia Stratton. On June 23, 1973, she married William Dunne Jr. at St. Michael’s Catholic Church in Kingsley. To this union, Bill and Ann were blessed with a son, Cory, and three daughters, Nicole, Jenni, and Gina. 

Ann was a dedicated wife and mother first and foremost and loved spending time with her family. She especially loved her role as Nana, her grandchildren brought her so much joy and happiness. She adored them so much, and always made sure they felt how deeply they were loved by their Nana and Papa. Ann also loved her sweet dog Charlie, they were always together, and you would often see them going for car rides, whether it was to get the mail at the post office, to pick up Bill at the farm, or maybe a quick trip to Target. The Iowa Hawkeyes are also her favorite, she never missed a game, and was always cheering them on. Ann loved her home, beautiful flowers, her favorite perfumes, pretty clothes, and choosing the perfect gift for her grandkids. She also took pride in her strong Catholic faith. 

Ann was the heart and soul of our family and home and devoted her life to us. She was a wife, mother, grandmother, daughter, sister, cousin, and friend, whose life touched us all. She will be dearly missed by all of us, and her love will always be present.
