She was born and raised in Brooklyn, NY with her brother Robert (married to Sarah.) Her parents were Mary and Carlo Maresco.
She met John on a blind date when she was 15 and he was 16. Four years later, they were married. Through all the challenges of their early marriage and throughout their lives together, she was always there for him and their four beautiful children: Leonard and his partner Cathy; Carol Ann, widow of the special Brian McDonough; Laura and her husband Paul; and John and his lovely wife Jennifer. She was blessed to have Brenda as a daughter in law as well.
Mary Ann worked as a medical assistant in John’s office. All the patients loved her and some still remember her always perfectly polished nails.
She was blessed to have ten beautiful grandchildren: Marisa, Brittany, Cameron, PJ, Conor, Giancarlo, Marianna, John Anthony, Sarah and Natalie. They will miss their much-loved “Fancy Nana.” To complete her blessings, she became Great Nana to Claire and Sloan.
A beautiful, giving life has ended but not the memory of a woman beloved by all.
