We are sad to receive this news. We so enjoyed our vacation bus trips with you both in the past for several years. Always a joy to see that you were going. Maryanne was so friendly and smiling. Praying for comfort and peace from our Lord that you both serve during this transition time.

MaryAnne was the living example of what a Christian should be: devoted to her church, her family, her friends; willing to serve and welcoming to newcomers; and I never heard her complain or put anyone down. She is the only person I have known who never said a bad word about another person. She was a treasure and will be missed by many.

Mrs. Watson was one of the kindest ladies I've ever known. I remember her so well from my childhood, you could see the Holy Spirit in her. She was such a precious, beautiful soul. I know she is rejoicing with her savior!

It made me so sad to see this today. Mary Anne was one of the sweetest ladies I have ever known. She loved Johnny and her family, as well as her church. Although we will miss you here we know that we will see you again in Glory.
