Ann Magdalene Lehman

Ann Magdalene Lehman was born on July 17, 1944 in Brooklyn, New York to Everett and Frieda Vroman. She passed away peacefully at her home in Gainesville, Virginia on March 27, 2025. Growing up in Brooklyn as the youngest of five children Ann’s early life was shaped by close family bonds and humble beginnings. In high school her family started splitting time between the City and her parents' home in rural Upstate, NY. She attended Catholic school, played basketball, and received her degree in Nursing. She worked in the Women’s Health Unit early in her career; helping many scared, young women through complex problems. It was here she met Robert while riding in an elevator, from then on Ann and Robert never spent much time apart, getting married within 6 months of their first meeting. They first lived together in Iceland, where they made lifelong friends and formed the foundation of 59 years of marriage. This relationship was a wonderful source of energy, fulfilment and joy for both Robert and Ann. Robert and Ann had 2 children, Elizabeth and Chris while living in a small house in New York. This growing family prompted them to leave the city and move to Manassas in 1971. Ann embraced family life and community. She was very involved in raising her children, supporting their education all while working. Ann was a major contributor to Robert’s Orthopedic practice, performing all the various jobs in a family office. Importantly she served as a boss, friend, and mentor; all while developing lifelong relationships with their employees. Ann loved spending time with family and friends, traveling, and creating joyful memories with her children and grandchildren. Ann was a source of wisdom, comfort and support and was always ready with a recipe, advice, or just an ear to listen. Her absence will be felt by many on a daily basis. Ann was predeceased by her beloved husband Robert. Ann is survived by her daughter Elizabeth and her husband Gary, her son Chris and his wife Stephanie. Gran will be missed tremendously by her grandchildren Alexandra and Madeline Kennedy and Andrew and Peter Lehman. A Service of Life for Ann will be held on April 12th from 10-10:30 am at Pierce Funeral Home. Immediately followed by a reception with light refreshments until 11:30 am.
