Mary Ann was a life-long Cubs fan, an avid golfer, former member of multiple bowling leagues, and Facebook enthusiast. She worked for Continental Illinois National Bank, Bank of America, Walgreens, and Makray Memorial Golf Club. She was a member of the Makray Ladies 18 Hole Golf League and served as the scheduler & blogger for the league. She was also very active in her community and served on the board as President of Ethans Glen Homeowners’ Association in Palatine, IL. Mary Ann had an outgoing personality, so she easily made friends – whether she was in person or online. Above all else, she truly loved her entire family and was always proud of her Italian heritage.
