Mary Ann Hammye, age 83, of Toledo, Ohio, passed away on February 19, 2024, at The Toledo Hospital, after a long journey with health issues. She never fully recovered from the loss of her son, John. She was born June 6, 1940, in Leipsic, Ohio, to Carrie (Sweigert) Jones.
Mary Ann graduated from Whitmer High School. She held various jobs throughout her 44 years at Washington Local Schools, retiring in 2018 from the payroll department. When asked why she worked so long, she would always say because she loved her job. She enjoyed her weekly luncheons with the girls and her Christmas in July parties with friends.
Mary Ann was a member of the American Payroll Association and the Business Professional Women's Group, where they met monthly for dinner at Eddie Lee's.
Family was most important to Mary Ann. She had a heart of gold and was an amazing mom who would do anything for her children. She always looked forward to Sunday dinners with her family. Her love and smile will forever be missed by those who knew her.
Those left to forever cherish her memory are her loving children, Steven Hammye and Cindy Hammye; her support cat, Frank; nieces, Lori Harris and Brittany Huffman; nephews, Dennis Hartman and David Hartman; and many beloved friends.
