I worked with Maryann at Parkview Hospital in Philadelphia and again at the Cooper surgery Center in Voorhees. She was a sweet, kind, wonderful person who will be missed by many. I am so very sorry for your loss. I hope you are comforted by the knowledge that she touched many lives in a positive way.

I had the pleasure of working with Maryann at Cooper. "What a hoot", we would say of her. We laughed that she had matching reading glasses for every outfit, and we just couldn't get enough of her stories. We knew she just adored her family -- such a wonderful family as evidenced by all of the wonderful pictures. Embrace all of your dear memories as they will bring you some comfort during this difficult time. I will fondly remember Maryann and consider myself blessed to have known her. Dorothy Duffy
Aunt Mary was honestly the funniest person I knew. The way she delivered stories was a gift!
I remember as a kid the Tillger’s were always the family that got the new “electronic” first. One year my sister and I was in awe that they had a “beta” machine and we only had a “vcr” 🤣. Growing up Aunt Mary also was the go to person to call if you didn’t feel good, she was always able to help calm fears. We are so thankful that we had one last holiday season with her, and what a Christmas it was. The hour we spend all telling our favorite Christmas memories was priceless and will be cherished forever. Family gatherings will not be the same without her large personality. Rest In Peace Aunt Mary, love you to the moon and back.
I have so many wonderful memories of Maryann...Survivor parties, craft shows, tailgating, shopping, working together...no matter what we did or where we were we always laughed. She was my mentor, my friend, my confident and my sounding board. She was my Dumbledore! She was a genuine and true friend to me and to so many.She will be greatly missed.
I'm not sure if this got thru in case it didn't
How Blessed I am to have had Maryann in my life. We met many years ago in Michigan and began a friendship never to be forgotten. We shared a lot, we shed a few tears together but most of all laughter was our common denominator. One of the funnies Mary and must admit myself also were always going on some wacko diet, she stopped by to visit one day and was bragging on losing some pounds. I broke into hysterics as her nose was covered with chocolate which required her fessing up to polishing off a couple of chocolate eclair so. Mary was a true friend and although we didn't see much of each other after they headed back east. A phone call connected us as if they never left.
Tom and I couldn't have Mary and Paul more, many people cross your path thru out your life and to say we Cherished their friendship sounds so trieval but we truly did.
'Til we again.RIP my wonderful friend, gone but never to be forgotten.
I was an only child. However, when I married Maryann's sister Kathleen, Maryann, her sisters and brother always treated me with kindness and love. From that time onward, all of a sudden I had sisters and a brother. For that I am extremely thankful. Over the years, Maryann's story telling was interesting and at times comical. I will always remember Maryann for all the joy she brought into my life as a Costello family member. I know Maryann will look after her family and friends up in heaven, and whisper good things about us to the Lord.
