Our hearts go out to the Lynch family with the sad news of MaryAnn’s passing. She was such a loving woman who watched our girls and became another part of our family as they referred to her as Grandma. God truly received an angel when he called MaryAnn home.

Mary Ann was an asset to everyone at church. She made all of us feel a little closer to God. Mary Ann will be sadly missed.
Maryann, the shining star of creativity with a heart as vast and loving as an ocean, was truly a blessing. Her humor could lighten any mood; her kindness softened our hearts. Truly thoughtfully generous, radiating gentle warmth effortlessly. Her faith served as our guiding light. Amazing would be an understatement to describe her! Despite the sorrow, let’s celebrate the beautiful gift that was Maryann – missed but forever treasured! Sorry Mike, I❤️ve your Maryann too.
