On 5/16/16 Ann Donnelly Benn, 80, of Bridgeport passed away surrounded by family.
 
Ann graduated from St. John's the Evangelist, studied at LeMoyne College, and worked for Farmers Home until the early 80's.  She was an avid reader, enjoyed cooking, music, ceramics, researching her family tree and spending time with family. Her immense love for computers started the day she purchased a word processor, when they first went on the market, and continued through many upgrades, additional memory bars, add ons, etc. In her later years social networking kept her connected to her friends and loved ones and she enjoyed hours of gaming with her “on-line” family. Her beautiful smile and love will always be in our hearts.
 
Ann and her three siblings Vincent (Sandy) Donnelly, Jeannette (Kevin) Drumm, J. Kenneth (Cathy Bishop) Donnelly were born in Syracuse to Dorothy Harrington and Joseph Donnelly. Ann married Harvey Benn III on 4/25/1959, together had three children Janice White, Denice (William) Roehm and Harvey (Maria-Elena) Benn IV. Eight grandchildren EJ White, Matthew White, Jessica White Hamlet, Robyn Roehm, William Roehm III, Harvey Benn V, Corey Benn and Nathan Benn and 7 great grand children.

 A private mass will be held for family.
