Ann was born in Jersey City to the late Josephine (Vonatzingen) and Arthur Hogan. She was raised in Secaucus, attending St. Michael’s catholic school, and graduating from Weehawken high school.

She is predeceased by her parents, her loving husband Arthur Pipitone, her sister Ellen Kleber, and her mother-in-law Marie Pipitone.

Surviving are her daughters, Jill and her husband Christopher Olsen of Jackson, and Jennifer and her husband Steve D’Antonio of Colts Neck, and her four beloved grandchildren Gianna, Alexa, Frankie, and Sebastian.
