Fleetwood of Hockessin, DE, formerly of Seaford, DE, 90, died peacefully on Thursday, July 30, at Seasons Hospice at Christiana Hospital.  Ann was a beautician for over 25 years as owner of Ann’s Beauty Shop in Seaford.  After that she entered the food service industry as the assistant manager of the DuPont cafeteria.  She and her first husband, Arthur Lee Fleetwood, retired on the same day in 1986 to enjoy travelling and renovating their homes.  Ann and Lee especially enjoyed their time at their residence in Vero Beach, Florida, until his death in 1999.
