Mary Ann Kopaczewski

Mary Ann never had children but she spoiled her nieces and nephews and loved them as if they were her own. Mary Ann worked as a nurse aide for many years.

Mary Ann loved her family and made sure to always tell them so. She would sign every card and tell every person before she would hang up the phone that she loved them “all the way to God and back”. Several years ago, Mary Ann wrote a message that she wanted shared when she passed away:

“I tried to be good all my life. I have tried to help people and help my family for I love all my family. I hope youse all saw the good in me. I am gone now, but in my heart, I will love all my family and friends, and even my enemies (which are very few). All I wish is that people don’t forget me. And please love one another as I loved youse."

The family would like to sincerely thank the staff at Ascension St Francis Place and Compassus Hospice for the care and companionship they provided to Mary Ann during her final days.
