August 4, 1940 - April 13, 2015

Mary Ann Ward, 74, of Forest City, died on Monday, April 13, 2015, at the Muse Norris Hospice Inpatient Unit in Mason City.

A daughter of Martin E. and Bertha (Charlson) Monsen, Mary Ann was born on August 4, 1940, in Winnebago County, Iowa.

Over the years, Mary Ann worked at a variety of jobs that allowed her to interact with the public. Currently employed at Hy-Vee West in Mason City as the "Sample Lady," she truly enjoyed her job. She loved to share her cooking and baking with others. Moreover, always the first to offer help to those in need, she found great joy visiting with others and sharing the word of God.

Mary Ann is survived by her three children, Kimberly (Larry) Merchant, Robin Ward (fiancée, Kimberly Walker), and James (Linda) Ward; her grandchildren, Jaime Haugland; Valerie Merchant (fiancé, Justin Cook); Dana (Kiley) Eisenmann; Christina Gayken; Clay Nagel; Adam and Jennifer Walker; Amber (Al) Schwickerath; and Alex Young; her great-grandchildren, Rylie, Natasha, Brice, Conner, Sydney, Jaxon, Izabella, and Turner.

She was preceded in death by her parents; her brothers, Martin and Eugene Monsen; her sisters-in-law, LeAnne and Carmen Monsen; her grand-nephew, Joshua Gapp.

Funeral services will be held at 10:30 A.M., Friday, April 17, 2015, at the Garner Evangelical Free Church, 580 US Hwy. 18, Garner, with Pastor Haddon Anderson officiating. Visitation will be held from 4:00 to 8:00 P.M., Thursday, April 16, 2015, at the Cataldo Schott Funeral Chapel, 505 North Clark St., Forest City. Interment will take place in Madison Township Cemetery in Forest City.
