MaryAnn Brennan Obituary

MaryAnn (Langan) Brennan, 83 of Windsor Locks, formerly of Newington, and beloved wife of 63 years to Thomas F. Brennan, entered into eternal peace, surrounded by her

family, on Tuesday, March 22, 2022.

MaryAnn was born July 13, 1938, in Scranton, Pennsylvania to Eugene and Madelyne (Morahan) Langan. MaryAnn later married her husband Tom and moved to Newington, raising their six children. MaryAnn was a lifelong woman of faith, who had a unique talent for fostering special and meaningful connections with everyone in her life. She was happiest when she was surrounded by her loving family and friends. She enjoyed beach vacations in Rhode Island, attending her grandchildren's events, was an avid sports fan, a seasoned hostess for holiday parties, and the pillar of her family. Above all, she was driven and devoted to God, family, and spreading love to all.

MaryAnn was preceded in death by her parents; her two brothers, Eugene and Paul Langan; her two brothers-in-law, Martin and Robert Brennan; and her beloved daughter, Kathleen (Brennan) Koenig. In addition to her husband Tom, MaryAnn leaves behind her five children, Maribeth Connolly and her husband, John, Maureen Mullins and her husband, Rick, Suzanne Balesano and her husband, Tony, Thomas Brennan and his wife, Patty, Michele Tolo and her husband, Jay; and her son-in-law, John Koenig and his wife, Melanie. MaryAnn is also survived by her adored grandchildren, Jessica, James and his wife, Jillian, Kathleen, Kevin, Rick, Kristen, Sarah, and Christopher. She also leaves behind her cherished brothers, Michael Langan and his wife, Maryann, Gerald Langan and his wife, Frances; sisters-in-law Evelyn Langan, Patricia Langan, Nancy Rocereto and her husband; Thomas, Anne Marie Brennan; her cousin Kathy Houlihan and husband; Paul; and dear friends Kathy and Joe Cieslukowski.

MaryAnn's enduring legacy is that of love, kindness, and faith. She led a life by example, showing compassion, offering inclusion, and loving fiercely. We are blessed to have had her as a beloved wife, mother, sister, grandmother, friend, and No. 1 supporter.

Relatives and friends may join the family on Saturday, March 26, 2022, from 9 to 11 a.m. at Leete-Stevens Enfield Chapels, 61 South Rd., Enfield. A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at noon at St. Jeanne – Jugan Parish, Holy Family Church, 23 Simon Rd, Enfield. Burial will follow at Hazardville Cemetery, Enfield.

Hi Brennan Family,
Saddened to see the reminder about your great Mom on email and surprised that a year has gone by so fast. Mary Ann´s memory is still so strong that it seems like last week that we lost her.
All of us miss her gracious (Scranton?) welcomes for one and all that came to visit. She usually had a dozen things going, but she made time for each visitor. Visitors always left the Brennan home feeling better than when they came in. Mary Ann was her wonderful Mom a & Dad´s daughter, no doubt. Gene Langan was tops.
Pray for us , Mary Ann, who are still here. That we will join you and our good families there who will welcome us into life with the Lord forever.
