Mary Ann was one of our Washington Grade School classmates. Always smiling and lots of fun. What she couldn't think of we could. I am sure we gave the teachers a lot to talk about on their lunch hours but it was never anything really bad, just lots of fun. She was a good mother and wife. Cindy Kodros Garvey
