After a full life of 85 years, Mary Ann passed away in peace and comfort at home with family. She joyfully contributed to the betterment of humanity by serving as a nurse for over 25 years. Mary Ann's favorite pastimes were a day out fishing or a busy day on the dance floor with TC. She loved to cook her famous dump cake and take it and many other dishes to share with others at the dances. The dances were the highlight of her week. She loved to visit with her friends there. She also enjoyed entertaining at home, whether it was cooking Thanksgiving, Christmas, or Easter dinner or just another night she wanted to invite us all over even if it was just coffee with friends and family. Mary Ann loved people and loved to spend time together and to help others where she could. Sometimes it was just in giving of herself to listen to someone with a problem, that was hurting that needed to be heard. She always made time for others. She felt like God asked us to do that like He would do if He were here on Earth. She was a wonderful witness of Christ's love.
