Obituary

MONONA-Mary Jean “Mary” Egan, age 92, passed away at Agrace HospiceCare on Monday, March 18, 2019. She was born in Highland, Wisconsin, the daughter of the late Anthony and Ann Pustina. Mary Jean was a social butterfly who enjoyed being with people. She thrived at Heritage in Monona where she made new friends with both the residents and the employees. In her younger years, Mary Jean was an avid seamstress and gardener, canning and preserving everything she grew. She loved flowers of all kinds, for she never met a flower she did not love. Mary Jean was married to Robert J. Egan for 56 years before he passed away in 2002. Together they had three children, Mike (Becky), Lynne (Mark) and Jane (Jeff); six grandchildren; and seven great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her two brothers, Don and Dode. Mary Jean was loved by all and will be deeply missed. Per Mary’s request, funeral services will be private. We would like to thank the staff at Agrace HospiceCare for their wonderful care over the past year. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be gifted in Mary Jean’s name to Agrace HospiceCare, 5395 E. Cheryl Parkway, Fitchburg, WI 53711. Online condolences may be made at www.gundersonfh.com. Gunderson East Funeral & Cremation Care 5203 Monona Drive 608-221-5420

I always thought of her as my 2nd mom whenever times were unsettling at my own house. She always welcomed me and made me feel so comfortable and special. My deepest sympathy to all of you. She was indeed one amazing lady. Kathy Sandee Schmidt

Lynn. Your mom was always my favorite "other mom". She was so warm and so kind and welcoming. I still remember your place on the hill when we went to St. Bernards. I hope that she finds my mom to talk to up in heaven. I send you my deepest sympathies, Lynn. Love and hugs from Sandi Loye Bernhardt.
