Ann M. (Burbine) Vanasse, 88, of Warwick, passed away peacefully on Memorial Day, Monday, May 26, 2025, at the Brentwood Nursing Home in Warwick, surrounded by her loving daughters, Celeste and Cheryl.
She was the beloved wife of the late Wilfred Vanasse of Central Falls.
Born in Providence, she was the daughter of the late John and Susan (Palmer) Burbine.
Ann served as Vice President of Able Window Company in Warwick and was also a devoted mother and homemaker.
She is survived by her cherished daughters, Celeste Levesque (Mike) of Warwick, and Cheryl Ciolli (David) of Lincoln. She was a proud and loving grandmother to Aubrey Levesque of Miami, Florida, and Carleigh Periquito of North Providence.
Ann had a passion for ballroom dancing and a deep love for music. She delighted in attending family gatherings and was known for always being impeccably dressed—“dressed to the nines.”
She enjoyed catching up with friends over coffee at Dunkin’ Donuts, where she formed a special friendship in recent years with Bob Kalunian.
A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated at Immaculate Conception Church, 237 Garden Hills Drive, Cranston, RI, on Wednesday, June 4th at 10:00 a.m. Interment will be private.
