Euphrasia "Anne" Corcoran, 82, formerly of Port Jervis, NY, passed away peacefully on July 19, 2025, in Las Vegas, Nevada. Anne was born on February 10, 1943, in Port Jervis, NY, to the late Francis and Cecelia (Urban) Mullaly. She was raised in Port Jervis alongside her beloved sister, the late Mary Rose Williams. A proud graduate of Vassar Nursing College, Anne dedicated over 50 years of her life to the nursing profession. She began her career as an emergency room nurse before becoming the school nurse and cheerleading coach at Port Jervis High School, where she served the community for over 25 years. After retiring from her position at the high school, Anne continued her passion for healthcare by teaching nursing at the College of Southern Nevada. In 2003, Anne made Las Vegas her permanent home, a place that brought her great joy and where she could enjoy three of her favorite things: bingo, church, and spending time with her grandchildren. She was known for her daily Diet Coke, her sweet tooth, and her kind personality. Anne was a devoted member of Christ the King Catholic Church, where she was active in the outreach ministry team and a proud member of the CTK Seniors Club. She is survived by her children: Sean Corcoran of Port Jervis, NY, and Sheilah Petrosky (Jerry) of Las Vegas, NV; her cherished grandchildren: Kayla Barbieri, Marissa Corcoran, Lauren Petrosky, Riley Corcoran, and Ethan Petrosky; and her adored great-grandchildren: Chase, Julianna, Emma, Karter, and Aaliyah. She was preceded in death by her parents, Francis Mullaly (1986) and Cecelia Urban Mullaly (2000), as well as her sister, Mary Rose Williams (2023). Friends and family are invited to visit Saturday, August 16, 2025 from 10:00 am–11:30 am at Gray-Parker Funeral Home, Inc., 100 East Main Street, Port Jervis, NY 12771.
