Mary Ann had cerebral palsy. Until we all moved away in 1961 Mary Ann and her family used to come to visit their aunts and uncle, who were our next door neighbors, on weekends and my brothers and I would play with her, her brother and sister. At that time Mary Ann was the youngest. She was such a sweet girl and was doted on by all of her family and friends. I remember how thrilled everyone was when Mary Ann began learning to communicate using an ouija board. She would use the pointer to spell out words.

When we moved, our neighbors moved too and we lost touch. The interstate system bought our property and the houses were torn down. I thought of my neighbors many times and of Mary Ann and her siblings, but never contacted them again. Rest in peace Mary Ann.
