Our sympathies to the James and Storch Families. Just found out about the passing of Mary Ann. When I was a little girl, I can remember going to Aunt Rosie and Uncle George’s house to visit and Mary Ann would always come down with the twin little girls. Mary Ann, my mom and dad (Vince and Sue Fadse), Aunt Rosie and Uncle George would sit for hours and laugh in the kitchen while we went next door to the playground. Great childhood memories.

Dear Sandy and Susie: Your Mother and I had many enjoyable times in our youth. She was so proud of both of you. I’ll always remember the letter she sent when you both arrived. She was a great gal, and I’ll always treasure our friendship.
I have so many good memories of Mary Ann. She added so much joy in my life for many years when my girls were growing up and I lived with the family in wheeling. I feel my life and the life of Teresa and Wanda was enriched by knowing her.. She always had the best interest of others in her heart.
So very sorry for your loss. My deepest and sincere sympathy to you and your family. Ella and I will be praying for her. Suzanne

Connie, you and your family is in our prayers.
Susan So sorry for your loss. Glad her suffering is over. You have been an amazing daughter as caregiver with endless love. My hugs are with you.
Sorry for your loss! Sending hugs!
Susie & Sandy,
I’m so sorry for your loss. Prayers to you both in this difficult time. It had been many years since I had seen her, but I have happy memories from the times I got to spend with your mom.
Susan, I am so very sorry for your loss. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
