It's been 3 months and I still can't believe you are gone, I miss you so much but I know you are with Daddy now probably making him clean something. I thought I had all the time in the world with you but I was wrong. I want you to know that I love you so much and the boys and I will keep your memory going. Love you mom

Mary Ann was a blessing to all of us at Camp Ground Baptist Church that knew her. She had a kind and joyful spirit, so it was not surprising that Pat and Ron loved her so very much and loved caring for her in her time of need. She will definitely be missed.

Mary Ann was such a sweet, sweet and gentle lady. I am very blessed to have been her Sunday School teacher at Camp Ground Baptist Church in Ozark, AL during the time she stayed with her sister, Pat. We are all mourning OUR loss, but are rejoicing that Mary Ann is now with our Lord. We miss her already. Dear family, may your memories of Mary Ann and her dazzling smile warm your hearts and bring you joy. With heartfelt sympathy, Nancy Leatherwood
