She developed so many lasting relationships at Walmart and will be missed by all. Mary Ann was an active member at St. Mary’s in Elizabeth, attending Mass regularly and serving as a Eucharistic Minister. In her free time, she enjoyed baking, photography, making arts and crafts, and always helping out when she could and selflessly thinking of others. She enjoyed all animals, especially her cats and cows. A few of her other favorite things included gardening, the Green Bay Packers, Eeyore, and being an active role in her niece and nephew’s lives as much as she could. Mary Ann is survived by her husband, Duane Morhardt of Elizabeth, IL; her mother, Beverly Kloss of Elizabeth, IL; her brother, Bill Kloss of Elizabeth, IL; her sister, Heather (Drew) Kluesner and their children Alicia and Ben of Dubuque, IA; Uncle Eric Thomasson (pseudo-grandfather) of Stockton, IL; her brother-in-law Michael (Debbie) of Great Falls Montana, her sister-in-law Lynette (Wayne) Schultz of Stockton, IL, and sister-in-law Paula Morhardt of Stockton, IL, along with other aunts and cousins.
