I am very sorry for your loss. I am Ken’s first cousin and was a bridesmaid at their wedding. I have great memories of the two of them from that time. When Aunt Nancy would babysit us, all I wanted to do was hang in the basement with the teenagers listening to music. May your own fond memories carry you through this sad time.

Very sad to just hear of the passing of my cousin Maryann. Brings back fond memories of my Mother taking his to visit her Mom and Dad, her and the rest of their family many years ago. May she rest in peace and may God comfort her family during this most difficult time.

I remember the sleepovers as a child at cousin Maryann's house when we lived with Grandmom Rose on Sanger Street. We always had fun and in the summer. I went to the local carnival with Maryann, and remember her mom, my Aunt Maryann baking cupcakes for it and bringing them. And I remember Uncle Ed cooking on the grill in the summer. They were great times, and when I felt closest to Maryann before moving back to New Jersey. Those are times I will never forget and I will deeply miss my dear cousin Maryann.

Many fond memories when the kids were little. All dressed up for Easter or a pool party at Bob and Vicki’s. The kids always had a ball. Lindsay, Melanie and Megan fought for Mare’s lap. She was so wonderful with the kids! I got many of pointers and good advice from her. You’re with Kenny, Nancy, Patrick and Charlie now. RIP until we meet again.
