Mary Ann was a wonderful woman whom I was so blessed to have as my Aunt. I have great memories spending time at the house with Cousin Roger, Sandy, Jeanne and Cindy and of course Uncle Ralph who always enjoyed his Tomato juice for breakfast. She was a kind, hardworking women whom I always admired. She was always so pleasant and easy going. I was glad that I and my wife saw her this past June. I am so blessed that she was my Aunt whom I loved and was a big part of my life. Love you always Mary Ann
