I am heartbroken. My wife, life partner & business partner Ann Hetram passed away unexpectedly on Sunday, March 30.

Ann was truly one of a kind — wise, intuitive, endlessly generous, and the heart of everything we built together. 

We shared our life, our work, our friends, and our dreams. We were together 35 years, and many years together 24/7, and I wouldn't have wanted it any other way.

I’ve created this tribute — a YouTube video, podcast episode, and blog post to honour Ann’s incredible life. 

  • Our life together and what she means to me.

  • Her unique qualities.

  • Some of the excessively generous acts she has done. I call them “Ann’s Acts of Kindness”.

If you have a story about Ann, your relationship with her, or you have an example of Ann’s Acts of Kindness, I want to hear these stories. They are my most treasured thoughts about Ann.

If you want to share them at her Celebration of Life, please tell me so we can put you on the list. You could also just tell me at the reception, or email me the story so I have it forever.

We will have a Celebration of Life reception in Ann’s honour on Thursday, April 17. The actual gathering to share stories about Ann is at 3 PM, followed by an informal reception until 8 PM. Bring your stories with Ann. It’s casual dress.

Here’s a link to my special post about Ann: https://edrempel.com/celebrating-the-life-of-ann-hetram/

With love,
