Ann Lynn Gaudio, 74, of Highland, NY passed away on January 9, 2024 in Poughkeepsie, New York.

Ann was a local resident and a graduate of Our Lady of Lourdes High School. Ann was retired from the Marriott Corporation. 

Ann was full of spirit. Undoubtedly thoughtful, always thinking of and helping everyone she loved. Ann was naturally funny yet humble. She was always the light in the room without even realizing it. Ann made friends wherever she went and she had a way of making people feel naturally comfortable. She found joy in seeing the innocence and spunk of children which made her an amazing mother, and adoring aunt and a devoted grandmother. Ann was strong at times in life when most could not have held it together. She was a rock to say the least, and a constant part in many lives of those who loved her. Ann showed us by example how to be the good in the world. She will be so greatly missed by everyone who loved her. Ann was a member of the Clintondale Christian Church. Ann loved her family, going on vacation, and sitting by the water. Ann enjoyed life and was an avid Yankees fan. Her number one player was Reggie Jackson.  

Survivors include her children, Shawn Gaudio of Modena, Allison Gaudio of Middletown, grandchildren Tyler Gaudio, Jayden Skiff, and Myia Skiff, her beloved pug, Pugsley, her siblings Michael Inger and his companion Marsha DiBenedetto of Virginia, Patrick Inger of Poughkeepsie, Lawrence Inger of Poughkeepsie, Christine DeCosta and her husband Joe of Clintondale, her sister-in-law Patricia Gaudio of Pleasant Valley, and several nieces and nephews.

Ann was predeceased by her two sons Christoper and Vincent Gaudio.
