I am so sorry about Mary Ann's passing. I knew Mary Ann from the University and she was truly one of my favorite people. She always had a smile and a warm greeting when I would see her. May you all find comfort in the wonderful memories you have of your loved one. Sincerely, Grace Winnick Williams

To the family of Mary Ann, I am so sorry for your loss. I sat across from her for 7 years in Bates House. Both Debra and my son graduated college the same year and Mary Ann and I did the count down together. Our love for our children was a common bond for us. I wish you all peace in this most difficult time. Bonnie L. Cameron

Debra - I'm so sorry to hear about your Mom! She was such an amazing lady and made the best turkey sandwiches! You're in my thoughts and prayers... It's hard to see parents everyday with having a life of your own, but now you know your mother will be looking down on you and your beautiful family everyday. Love you lots, Sara

I tried to think of a specific memory of Auntie, but I couldn't. How do you isolate one memory of someone who you have known your whole life? Instead, I would like to share a stream of memories. Of course, all those holidays growing up- Easter at Mom and Dad's, where Auntie always brought a chocolate bunny to all of us, even after we became adults- she said she didn't care, it still brought her joy to bring us bunnies, and in later years she even brought them to our spouses… Thanksgiving, where for years Auntie made a huge dinner, with every pie imaginable for dessert, including my personal favorites, chocolate cream and banana cream…and she always made those wonderful tarts that we would get into with Uncle Bob before dinner was served… and of course, Christmas Eve, where Auntie and Dad always had one gift for each other that was impossible to get into, whether it was super scotch-taped, or if it was wrapped in layers of duct-taped boxes, wire, or anything imaginable- I remember one year when Dad painted some batteries red and wrote "dynamite" on them for laughs- and Auntie always gave Dad a silly goose that sang Merry Christmas or something to get a laugh…but my memories of Auntie are not just about holidays…I remember Auntie and Uncle Bob bringing Michele, Debra and me to the Big E once when we were little- it rained all day, but we made the best of it, looking at the building exhibits and eating food at tables under umbrellas…I remember when I was little and spent Saturdays at Grandpa's house after Grandma died, and Auntie would come over to make him lunch, and Michele, Debra and I would play in the yard with Tina…and after Grandpa died, Auntie adopted Tina…I remember Auntie inviting me to stay over at her house several times as I was growing up, and she always made sure I felt welcome and comfortable…I remember when she threw Uncle Bob's 50th birthday party and she started called him the "Buzzard"…I remember the vacations our families took together- Florida in 1985, when we went to Disney and Sea World, Tennessee in 1990 when we stayed in the chalets, and of course Maine in 1991 when Hurricane Bob hit…I remember Auntie encouraging me to attend the University of Hartford, and once I was there, visiting her at Bates House where she worked, and she was always happy to see me when I stopped by…and countless other memories…but through it all, I remember her as a strong, proud, kind woman who loved her whole family, always had a smile, and was happy to see you…always greeting you with "hi honey" or "oh goodie"…rest in peace Auntie- I can picture you together with Grandma and Grandpa- we love you and we will see you again someday.

Dearest Uncle Bobby, Michelle and Debra, I am so very sorry that I cannot be with the family during this, and am achingly sorry for your loss of Aunt Mary Ann. She was one of the strongest people I have ever met, and her will to live surpassed anything imaginable. I am with you in spirit and will see you in about a months time. For now, I leave the words of E.E. Cummings: "I carry your heart (I carry it in my heart)." I love you. Always, Heather.

I will never forget the time Bob and Mary Ann had a 4th of July picnic. Bob always bought fireworks and was lighting them to go off into the field behind the house. We were all near the pool area, and Bob sent one out, but it flew back toward us at the pool. Everyone was scattering for cover!! Mary Ann got so mad because the fireworks had set the clothesline on fire! It was so funny!!!! Everytime I see Mary Ann's clothesline I can't help but think of the wayward fireworks. We always had such a great time over Bob and Mary Ann's house. This episode was one of the funniest times that I have ever had. I still laugh about it, and I am sure Mary Ann is too.

GG Bob, Michele, and Debra, I understand that this is a tough time right now, but you need to keep the memories close to your hearts. I can tell you that is what we will be doing! She was an incredible woman with a heart of gold (even though she picked on my chicken legs)! She is now in a better and pain free place with the ability to watch over everybody. She will always be in our thoughts and prayers. Love you guys!

Big brother Bob, and our two nieces, Michele, and Debra: Mary Ann had a strong will to live and chose her time to pass onto her new life. Bob - she was the perfect wife for you for over 39 years; and was the best mom to her two daughters. And how she loved her grandchildren!!! And her dog, Buffy, brought her so much comfort and love in her remaining months of her life here on earth. But now she has journeyed into a greater life where she is free of pain and healthy again. Although we miss her, we must be happy for her. She will be forever in our hearts and will look after her husband and daughters forever. She really hasn't left us; and we will be all together again eventually. Love, Pam and Ray

Dear Bobby, Michele, Debra & family, I have known you my entire life and consider you family. Mary Ann was like a special "Aunt" who always greeted me with a hug and frequently asked mom and dad how we were doing. I will never forget the fun times all of us had together. The world will definately be a sadder place without her. May the memories of her bring you peace and comfort in this difficult time. With deepest sympathy, George and Laurie
