Mary Ann DeSantis Obituary

Mary Ann DeSantis was born in Manhattan to her mother Lucy Cavano and father Joseph DeSantis. She was the youngest of three. Mary Ann was raised in Staten Island and a proud  alum of St. John Villa Academy. 

Mary Ann had a great love of travel. When she was in her 20s, she lived in New Orleans and enjoyed a career in the hotel business while enjoying everything the French Quarter had to offer. When Mary Ann returned to New York she had a career as an executive assistant for multiple media companies. 

Mary Ann had a very loving heart and helped to raise her great-nieces. She is survived by her sister Lucile Litrell, nephew Robert, and great-nieces Jessie and Jen. She was pre deceased by her late brother Joseph DeSantis.

We will all miss her dearly.
