We both remember Mary Ann with great affection. Her ready smile and positive attitude despite many difficulties were infectious. I, Barbara, grew up in the same neighborhood with Mary Ann, and she was such a good friend; Jack got to know her in later years when we stopped to visit her whenever we were in Geneva. She always welcomed us warmly and showed enthusiastic interest in whatever we had been doing. We will miss her light.
