Not sure what to say?

I met Mary Ann in our golf league. She had this ability to make you feel special and always greeted you with a large smile and a big hug. My thoughts and prayers are with you, her family, at this difficult time.

Dear Betty and family,

I was suprised to hear that Mary Ann was sick, and shocked when my parents told me she had passed away. I am so sorry. I remember her as Stephanie and Kurt's little sister, running and laughing, so full of energy and happiness, and how much she hated dresses and bows. My thoughts and prayers are with each of you at this difficult time.

Mary Ann was always fun to golf with and has been missed greatly since she has not been able to be a part of the 5 O'Clock Ladies League. I loved to play golf with Mary Ann she was always so upbeat and happy. Over the weekend, I was sitting with my grandmother as she struggles thru her last days of life. One of the older nurses came in and we were discussing God's plan for death and she gave me a new perspective on the subject that I hadn't thought about before. She said that God doesn't...

I also knew Mary Ann through golf. Her smile was infectous. She didn't know a stranger. She truly made going to play golf fun. My prayers and thoughts are with you all.

Schlarb Family:
I was so devastated to hear about Mary Ann's illness and passing. By the time I knew about her illness, I think she was not receiving visitors.

I'm another one of Mary Ann's golf buddies. She was such a wonderful person, always upbeat, always had a smile. Loved her dearly. My thoughts and prayers are with each of you at this difficult time. God Bless.

I also played golf with Mary Ann as well as played softball against her for many years. What a wonderful person. She was always smiling and always had something funny to talk about. She will be missed. The family is in our thoughts and prayers.

I met Mary Ann when playing golf in our league several years ago and I also saw her infrequently at Wendy's on Richmond Road.

I cannot imagine your sorrow at losing her at such an early age but hope that good memories of her ready smile and good heart will help you heal. She was a super person!

I played golf with Mary Ann, she was so much fun to play with and she would encourage you if you weren't play well. I have missed her so much. My prayers and thoughts are with you.
