Ann Paul Foley, 85, of King William, VA went home to be with the Lord on Wednesday, April 17th, 2019. Ann was born and raised in Hopewell, VA. She often spoke of her life growing up in a place she loved so much. She loved to share stories of her younger years attending her beloved school, Hopewell High School. She shared stories about cheerleading and The Teen Canteen, as well as stories of being with her friends, and meeting the love of her life, Mike Foley. She married Mike Foley in 1953. They raised four beautiful daughters and lived in Woodbridge, Virginia during the 60’s. Sometime later, they relocated to Waukegan, Illinois where they resided for 30 years. She was a stay at home mother who spent most of her days chauffeuring her girls to practices, games, and performances. Eventually, they moved back to King William, Virginia in 1999. Ann became very involved at Colosse Baptist Church, where she belonged to the Sanctuary Choir, The Faith Bears and Young at Heart. She loved bowling, painting, singing, word puzzles, board games, riding the country backroads, and most of all, bargain shopping. She looked forward to having lunch out with her girls and driving her scooter through Wal-Mart. Most importantly, she enjoyed being with her family and her loved ones. She will be remembered for her story telling, her contagious laugh, her beautiful smile, and her kind heart.
