It's hard to believe that Maryann has been gone 10 years. My memories are just as strong as they were when I was young. I miss her, her since of humor and her caring for everyone.

Dear Uncle Mitch, Jeannie, Clay and the rest of the family. I will truely miss Aunt Maryann. She was the best Aunt and Godmother a girl could have. She was always honest with you and trulely loved with all her heart. She used to tell me stories about my mother, Sandra, But she loved my Mom, Mary, like a sister. She took her under her wing and loved her. I am so glad that I got to talk to her before she passed away. She is in heaven now and sitting with the angels. She is watching over all of us and will always be in our hearts. The world will be a little sadder without her in it. I love you Auny Maryann. Say hi to Nana and Grandpa for us!
