Stuart S. purchased a sympathy card for the family of Mary Ann Fawson.
Sincerest sympathies. I’m glad my brother and I were able to reconnect with my cousin Mary Ann later in life, even if for a little while.
When I think of Mary Ann, besides being a great person, I think of the delicious calzones she always made for the parties at Auntie Kaye’s/Grampy Niemchicks! We had a lot of fun over the years! So So Sorry! Love, Lori
Mary Anne, may you Rest in Peace! My thoughts and prayers are with my cousins and Kevin. May all her fond memories give you strength and help you remember all the happy times. Love cousin, Michele Popcun, Syracuse, NY
Just today, getting this notice of Mary Ann’s passing. My belated condolences to Kevin, Gloria and Jimmy. This is so sad. As I am writing this, so many memories of Mary Ann are going through my mind. We had our ups and downs throughout the years but the last time I visited back home in Massachusetts I looked her up and we had a wonderful time reminiscing. Rest in peace Mary Ann. See you on the other side someday. :heavy_heart_exclamation_mark_ornament:️
