I will miss her deeply. God blessed my family with an angel. All you had to do was look at Mary Ann and know she was our gift from God. It really hurts me that I never got to tell her how much I loved her for everything she has taught me and her praying for me. Just as I am starting to get closer to God she is not here physically but I know what she wants me to do. I just hope we stay close as a family because we need each other. MARY ANN I MISS U ALREADY & I LOVE YOU & cant wait to see you again

Mary Ann just slipped away from us, missing her phone calls already. God knew best and just remember to hold on to HIS UNCHANGING HANDS. I know Mary Ann and her family in heaven are having a ball.
