Dear Miner Family,
We are sad to hear of Mary Ann's passing. We knew her at Dr. Blaisdell's office. She was such a happy positive person, always concerned and interested in everyone else and what was going on in their lives. May you find peace and comfort at this time.

My deepest sympathy goes out to the Miner family. I remember Mary Ann as our church organist and my mom's "Avon Lady". She always had a smile and a great sense of humor.

Mary Ann is the sweetest woman and I enjoyed her positive attitude and outlook on life. It was a privilege to be her neighbor for so many years.
