Amy, so very sorry to hear about grandma!! Sending big hugs and prayers for you all!! 🙏🙏
So sorry to hear about Mary Ann. I enjoyed working with her and was honored to be considered her friend. After her retirement Carl and I would see her and Ed at the casino. Always a pleasure to see her smiling and sometimes mischievous face! I also remember some “Producer girl” parties at her house. I know the family has some very fond memories they will always cherish.
I am sure Aunt Mary Ann will be missed by all of us. My love goes out to you Ronnie and to Sharon Ann and of course the rest of the family. Wish I could be with you guys but I will be there in spirit.
Enjoyed her growing up with Sharon. Love the family.
More wonderful memories of her than I can share at this time. Mary Ann, Ed, Arlin, and Janice, did we ever have some great, memorable times. Everyone should hope to have what we had. Prayers to the family, she was special.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. I will miss seeing my neighbor.
I miss you more every day!! I know you are in Heaven with Papaw and the two of you are having the time of your lives. We miss you but we know you are in no more pain and we will see you again one day. Until then you and Papaw enjoy Heaven. I love you and I miss you!! Love, Ashley!!
