Mary Ann was one of the kindest, most compassionate people I have known in my professional career. She never hesitated to go far beyond what was expected of her to lend a hand to anyone in need. She has indeed changed my life for the better. May God grant her Blessed Repose and Eternal Memory, and console her husband and family in their time of grief.
