MaryAnn (Drees) Tobias

Dear Eddie,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss and send prayers of peace and comfort! You have always been a special friend and would love to catch up! Please e mail me for number after all the shock wears off!
Much love,
Susie

MaryAnn was so special in her kind acts toward the children she ministered to in learning. I'll always remember her friendliness and open spirit. Her life evidenced her love for Jesus. He ministered through her in ways she was not even aware of. Now she can hear Him say, "Well done, good and faithful servant. Enter now into the joy of the Lord." Though she will be missed and grief is a part of life we can be assured that she has eternal life provided by our Savior, Jesus.

We are so sorry for your loss. Our prayers are with you and your family.

Thank you for posting. Mom will be missed.

I am so sorry for your loss. MaryAnn was a wonderful woman. You could tell family brought her great joy. She loved her husband, children and grandchildren and shared stories about them often. Her face absolutely lit up when asked about any of them. She was a strong Christian woman and shared her faith through her actions and her words. She was so patient and kind with the children she worked with at Lyons Middle School. I am a better teacher, mother and wife because of her influence. I am so glad I got to work with her for so many years. I know she enjoyed her retirement as she got to spend more time with family. May you treasure your memories and find comfort that she is at peace.

Christie, mom talked about how nice it was to work with you. I always remembered your name in conversation but was never able to put a name with a face. It was nice to finally meet you at the visitation yesterday. Mom enjoyed the time she worked with you and the others at LMS. Thank you for your sincere kind words. Mom will be forever missed.

So sorry to hear about Mary Ann, and our condolences to her family. I have a lot of fond memories of her in high school and she will be missed but never forgotten.

Mom will be greatly missed. Loving wife, mother, grandmother and friend to many. Thank you for your kind words.
