Ann Huber (née Kavanagh)

Switzerland

Ann lived at ‘Camelot’, Canal Road, Galway and grew up by the Canal in the midst of a busy community. After meeting her husband in London, they decided to move back to Hans’ home country Switzerland in 1969, where they lived until Ann’s death. After bravely fighting an illness for two and a half years, Ann was finally relieved of her pain and forever fell asleep on 11th December 2025 in Switzerland.

Pre-deceased by her parents Bertie and Mary, brothers George (Galway) and Michael and Frank (both Johannesburg/South Africa).

Ann is deeply mourned by her heartbroken husband Hans, son Sean and daughter Orla Ann, daughter-in-law Karin and son-in-law Daniel. Sadly, missed also by her family and relatives, friends and neighbours across Ireland, Switzerland, the United States and The Netherlands.

'May Ann’s kind, gentle and wonderful soul

rest in heavenly peace'
