Mary Ann was a beautiful person & I will miss her. I met Mary Ann when I first moved to Madison over 25 years ago. I was a new bride, I didn't have any family here & I was fortunate enough to work with her at Sentry. She was a great friend & we kept in touch even after I left Sentry. Treasure all the great memories you have of her. She was proud of all of you & talked about you often. God Bless, Annette Wagner

Mary Ann was always laughing and enjoying life. We had the privilege of "sharing" our very young lives, in Wisconsin. We moved to Indiana and didn't get to see each other often, but the bond was still there. Family meant everything to Mary Ann and I, so we were very pleased to see each other at least once a year at our "family reunion". Mary Ann's grandmother was my Aunt Beulah Henry Markley and a sister to my mother, Cleo Henry Gudenschwager. We delighted in telling our stories about her Grandma Markley and my Aunt Beulah Markley. There was never a dull moment around Mary Ann. Till we meet again Mary Ann, rest peacefully, you have earned it. Your cousin Marilynn nee Gudenschwager Einspahr!
