Ann Theresa (Forino) Kettman was born on October 24, 1938 in Streator, IL to Anthony and Ann (Novak) Forino.  She graduated from Streator High School.  She married Frank Kettman on October 25, 1958 in St. Mary’s Catholic Church in Streator.  Ann and Frank moved to Granville and raised their family.  In 1966 they established Kettman Heating and Air Conditioning.

Ann celebrated her life to the fullest.  She enjoyed square dancing, bowling, fishing and traveling to faraway places with her beloved Frank.  She and Frank enjoyed many nights out with family and friends.   It was known that martinis were her favorite, and occasionally she ended the night dancing on top of the table.  She always had bird feeders by a window where she could especially watch the cardinals and the hummingbirds.  She enjoyed visits with her grandchildren, her great nieces and her close friend Joan.  She was a member of the Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Granville.  Her faith was seen by all as she daily prayed for hours.  Her faith was as strong as the kind and encouraging words she had for all.  She is smiling from heaven proudest of her family and all of their accomplishments.

Survivors include two sons, Craig Kettman of Granville and Kory (Julie) Kettman of Ottawa; two daughters, Kim Kettman of Granville and Kelly (Jim) Haun of Mark; one brother, Paul (Delphine) Forino of Ottawa; one sister, Patti (Scott) Vogal of Streator; 10 grandchildren and one great-grandchild.

She was preceded in death by her parents, her husband Frank on June 24, 2007 and one sister Marion Yuhas.

Honorary pallbearers are her grandchildren Daniel, Matthew and Luke Haun; Aaron Kettman; Alexa, Connor, and Michael Kettman; Katie Fleming, Lauren and Elyse Bowers.
