Mass of Christian Burial for both Mary Ann and Stan will be held at 10 a.m. Friday, Aug. 23, 2024, at St. Stanislaus Catholic Church, 1506 Washington Street, Michigan City, Indiana, with Rev.

She was born May 31, 1933, in Glassport, Pennsylvania, to William and Wilma Stasko, who preceded her in death. Mary Ann is also preceded in death by her husband, Stan. They were married in Glassport, Pennsylvania, on Feb. 2, 1952.
