Mary Anne and family were my next-door neighbors in Guntersville.  She was the sweetest, dearest person I'd ever met, always, always, ALWAYS smiling.  I so enjoyed her infectious personality, and the way she lit up when talking about her children, all of whom she adored. She's with the angels now. We'll meet again in Heaven.

Mary Anne was so blessed to be surrounded by her family in a loving vigil with her.  May God's love and the love you shared with Mary Anne be a source of comfort for you in the days ahead.
Barbara Wojciak, St. Vincent's

I had the honor of working with Mary Anne at SVO.My first day she made me feel so at ease and accepted into the office. She was such a great example to me because no matter what she had a smile on her face and a sweet attitude.She also was always there to offer an encouraging word on days you needed to hear it the most.She will be greatly missed by all of us.Heaven gained a beautiful soul.Love and Miss you!

Oh, Mary Anne, what a beautiful tribute to you last night and today. And I loved the picture Katie chose in your wedding dress - as if ready to meet your Bridegroom. We could see your sweet smile and beautiful eyes and hear you singing to us as we left the church - "God be with you til we meet again; By His counsels guide, uphold you. With His sheep securely fold you; God be with you til we meet again. Keep love's banner floating o'er you. Smite death's threatening wave before you. God be with you til we meet again."  And meet again we will - someday soon.

I am so sorry to hear of Mary Anne's death. We were friends at Montevallo years ago. I was able to see her a few years ago at David's office. She was still the same pretty sweet gal I knew in the 60's. "May her memory be eternal".

She is deeply loved and will be truly missed. Mary Ann is the example of what this world is lacking, a honest and compassionate human being. Heaven is blessed to have such an awesome angel among them. I will always cherish the conservations we had. Mary Ann had a wonderful talent in providing peace to any situation. I will miss her very much.

Mary Anne and I were friends at Montevallo and then, thanks to Freddy's greatest move ever made, she became my sister-in-law, too.  Five Boyer grand-babies were born in 1978, including her Katie and my Logan.  Our families spent a lot of time together during those years.  We were blessed when Freddy worked in Montgomery for a while and his family moved in just a few blocks from us.  Mary Anne and I were sitting on the floor in Robin's new upstairs room.  She was helping me decorate the walls when she said something with just a hint of envy in it about my huge house.  I remember taking her hands and telling her, "But, Mary Anne.  You are doing such a better job than me at building a 'home' for your family."  She threw her arms around me with a huge grin on her face, then we giggled and wiggled like little girls.  Her "home" is still strong today.  Katie, David and Stephen all carry the best of her in their hearts and souls:  her inner and outer beauty, her faith in God and goodness, her generous spirit and nature and her unconditional love for others.  I feel a great loss, but heaven has gained the most gracious and beautiful angel ever.

With deepest sympathy to the Boyer family during your time of grief.God is for you a refuge and strength, A help that is there to be found during difficult times.May God provide you with peace and comfort to endure the days ahead.(Psalm 62:8).

Freddy chose well when he chose Mary Anne.  She was not just beautiful, kind, creative, and loving, she was grace-full, and she shared that love and grace with all she met.  I loved being with her, laughing, plotting, creating, talking about so very many things.  I alway felt better after being with her.  She made a great Boyer girl!

I had the pleasure of working alongside Mary Anne in some service projects. A beautiful women of God! I'll miss her sweet smile when and if I visit her brothers office where she always took time to speak with me persnally.She is my eternal friend!

                                                                      Marsha Johnson(Trussville, Al.)

I am praying God to comfort your family and friends at this time. Only God can mend a broken heart.

A dear friend and sister for many years. A Lady in the tradition of the South, raised at her momma's knee to be gracious and kind. I will miss her warm smile and too gentle corrections.
