She was born March 6, 1951, in Bradenton, Florida to James J. and JoAnn Albritton and was raised primarily in Arcadia, Florida. She married the love of her life in 1970 and from that moment on she focused on being an outstanding wife, homemaker, and mother. Once her daughter was grown, she returned to work for DeSoto County High in Arcadia where she retired in 2003 as a Paraprofessional. Later, that same year the family moved to Bonifay where she and Terry enjoyed their retirement with their family surrounding them.

She is survived by her husband of 48 years, Terry, her daughter Carrie Ann (Trae) Hurst of Bonifay, Florida, grandsons Logan and Case Hurst, also of Bonifay, Florida, her mother JoAnn Albritton, of Bonifay, Florida, her brother Jim (Cathy) Albritton of Avon Park, Florida, her sister Marlene (Richard) Borst of Bonifay, Florida. Sisters-in-law, Sharon Albritton of Lake Placid, Florida, and Kay (Bill) Stewart of Dozier, Alabama, and a host of nieces, nephews, and great nephews, who reside in both Florida and Alabama.

She was preceded in death by her father James J. Albritton, her mother-in-law Wylene Albritton, and a brother-in-law Edward Albritton.

A celebration of Mary Ann's life was held Wednesday, May 9, 2018, 10:30AM, at New Zion Baptist Church on highway 177A in Bonifay, Florida.

Still cannot believe my cousin is gone. I will treasure the time we had together. We used to visit our cousins often in Arcadia and we laughed so much and enjoyed the kinship and love of family. I remember how much she loved riding horses and can still picture her in the saddle. Mary Ann had a very big heart, always putting others first. Rest well sweet Mary Ann, we will see you later! Sending all my love & prayers to the Albrittons.

Cousin Mary Ann and I shared so many wonderful memories together from our earliest years of being together so much to marrying and having children at the same time. I am shattered she was taken from us too soon. However, we also shared the same faith and the comfort of knowing this will help sustain us as we go forward.

I can hear her voice with that beautiful southern accent asking about our kids and grandkids. How is Jimmy? She loved Jim. What have you been up to? Tell me about the grandkids. I always shared a funny story and she shared cute stories about Case and Logan. We talked on the phone about once a week. Oh the plans she was making to come see us in June. My heart is heavy, missing her, missing her Facebook messages. She lifted everyone else up. She had a kind spirit, putting others first, reminding us to trust in the Lord. My husband was her only brother, they loved each other and confided in each other. My heart breaks for him, his little sister who bossed him around his whole life is no longer here to keep him in check. I loved Mary Ann like a sister and miss her dearly. The tears come in waves of grief. There is never enough time...
I miss her more than words can describe and its only been a week.
