Thank you for sharing this obituary. Mary Ann was my friend and neighbor--giving me a ride to school every day in high school. She was a wonderful friend, and a character too. I remember she had diabetes like my younger brother--not an easy thing to have as a "child." But I bonded with her around that as well. Thanks again for sharing. Janet
Mary Anne was so fun. I can still hear her laugh. I love reading about your memories of her, Janet. Mary Anne ended up living across the street from my mom on Avenue F. She lived there about five years at the end of her life. I loved it because when I went home I got to see her. She made friends with my mom as most of our friends did. They added a lot to my each other's days. One time she found my mom's lost cat. Mary Anne was a good neighbor and friend. I miss her.
