“My stubborn hope in Jesus has been without disappointment! He is faithful!!”
Life story

Mary-Ann was a loving wife to her husband Tom and an incredible mother to her 7 children (and their spouses). She was the best grandmother to all 19 grandkids. You would never find her sitting watching the kids play. She was often the leader of the crazy idea they were concocting. She truly was like no other. She loved with her whole heart and served others exactly how Jesus taught us to. She was an example of what it means to be light in the darkness.
