The second eldest of five siblings, Ann is the cherished sister of Catherine Nugent and was predeceased by sisters Margaret and May Kellagher as well as brother John Kellagher. Ann (affectionately known as ‘Gran’) was also the proud grandmother of Shannon Reilly, Bonnie (Reilly) Duffy and her husband Joseph Duffy, Christine Reilly and Jack Reilly.
