Obituary of Mary Ann Dobe
Mary Ann (Carr) Dobe died at St. Joseph’s Hospital on Thursday evening, June 13. We are going to miss her so much but we are so thankful she can now “be still” and be embraced by the God she loved so deeply.
Mary Ann was predeceased by her husband Carl. She spoke of him so often recently and we are grateful they are reunited. Together they raised four daughters and one son and delighted in eleven grandchildren: Kathee and Robert and their sons Josh and Jesse; Melissa and her three children, Devin, Peyton and Regan; Kristin and Dave and their two children, David and Kelsey; Trisha and her four children, Nick, Aaliyah, Amya and Andre; and their son Eric. Mary Ann is also survived by her dear sister Judy and brother Bob, her sisters-in-law Maxine, Rosemary and Suzanne and many nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents, Donald and Frances and brothers, Peter and Champ. Mary Ann was born and raised in Syracuse and graduated from Convent in 1957 and Marymount in 1961.
Mary Ann was very active in the community, especially with her beloved church family at St. Lucy’s. Her presence is interwoven into the very fabric of that community. Mom was a friend to so many. We wish we could name all of you, but we appreciate how many of you have walked with us on this journey. We cherish especially Fr. Jim and her friends who shared her wonderful Friday mornings with her and all those who helped us care for her in recent weeks. She loved you all so much. Her kids just want to say: “Mom…we love you up to the sky and down to the ground. Please give Dad a hug!”
