I attened Fenwick HS and was a year ahead of Mary Ann at Marquette.I was deeply honored when Mary Ann debuted in 1960 to be her escort to the Presentation Ball at the Conrad Hilton.I can remember how proud Dr. and Mrs.Josh were of her on that occasion.I was also very proud that Mary Ann wore my fraternity pin while she was at Marquette.Although we drifted apart over the years,I'll never forget her warm bubbly personality,her great dancing ability,her positive mental attitude and her great love of life.Mary Ann truly was a class act.My deepest condolences to her family.She will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Mary Ann was my roommate at Marquette, she had the dancing shoes and I had my science books. We all tryed the shoes on, even the painful toe shoes but no one could wear them like she did. Jennifer, we met at dinner when you came home from the Peace Corp, you are her most cherished and now she adds your darling Rosie. I was between New Orleans and Naples but was there in spirit at St. Pats. I will miss by pal and know she will be looking down and watching over you and Rosie

Mary Ann was the most positive person I have ever known. She was a dear friend and a very special person. Mary Ann had so much class and handled her last years with incredible dignity and love. I will miss her. My thoughts and prayers are with Jenny and Rosie and her family.

Mary Ann was filled with life, love, energy and fun.
My mother and I coined a phrase "Having a Mary Ann day". We would say it if we got a lot of errands accomplished in a day.
She was a great friend.
I will miss her greatly.

I remember when we were in high school and I had promised to play the piano for some dancing something that she was going to perform in. We worked at her house and on that same night she was going to a Fenwick dance--I forget what they were called--but she didn't care about that; all she cared about was perfecting her dance routine with me. At the time, I was fat and unpopular with boys--I never did go to a Fenwick dance--and I couldn't believe that anyone would find that great honor lesser in importance than her dance performance. But she was a woman who KNEW what she wanted. We worked till her mother told her that she had to stop so she could get dressed for the dance!
My condolences to her daughter and granddaughter. I am sure she was a wonderful mother, grandmother, and that she died with the same grace with which she lived.

Right now words seem so very trite in comparison to the beautiful, cherished memories she left with me as her classmate at both St. Giles and Trinity. She was a fun loving teenager, loved to dance, had a contagious smile and oh, Mary Ann, dance and sing with the angels!! Love...

I knew Maryann from all the years she was a client of Dominic Muscerino at Jean-Pierre Salon. She was always fun to talk to and just an all around great person. I did her hair when Dominic was on vacation and we laughed a lot. The world is a lesser place without her. Canary
