Maryann A. (Dzumek) Daniels, 77, of Allentown, passed away September 3, 2025. Born in Allentown, she was the daughter of the late Andrej and Mary (Simak) Dzumek. She was a member of St. John the Baptist Slovak Catholic Church and First Catholic Slovak Ladies Association. She graduated in 1969 from St. Joseph's Nursing School in Reading, PA and went on to work at the Swedish Medical Center in Denver, CO, then at Allentown General Hospital and finally to Sacred Heart Hospital from which she retired after 36 years of service. Maryann continued her education throughout her career. She enjoyed sitting with her patients, holding their hand and getting their whole story; whether it was to help keep company or to help them pass on. She was an avid gardener, loved animals, enjoyed day trips to the shore and doing home improvement projects. She will be deeply missed.

Survivors: daughter- Teresa Daniels and husband Mark Kaiser of Hellertown, grandchildren- Olivia Lillian Rose Bower-Daniels and Gregory Andrej Bower-Daniels; brother- Joseph Dzumek of CA. She was predeceased by her sisters- Anna Madar and Helen Dzumek.
