She was a member of the Churchville Golden Agers and spent many enjoyable times going on bus trips and visiting many historical landmarks. She was very proud to be an American. Maria will be remembered for her love of bingo, friends and family. She enjoyed crocheting many doilies and scarves for everyone; and knitted sweaters for friends. She enjoyed working in her yard, doing word searches and putting together puzzles with her grandchildren and great grandchildren. Maria survived World War II and told stories about bombs dropping as she ran from them. She survived cancer and was a 50-year survivor.
