Mary Ann Fouts

Mary Ann Fouts, age 65, passed away on March 3, 2017 at McLaren Oakland Hospital in Pontiac, MI.

From her sunrise on May 4, 1951 to her sunset on Friday morning, Mary truly lived life to the fullest through the simple pleasures; chatting with friends and family, snacking on her candy, playing bingo, spoiling her nieces and nephews and being as feisty as she could be. She graduated from Pontiac Northern High School in 1971. At the age of 16, she began her work journey of 44 years with Kentucky Fried Chicken.

She is survived by two sisters, Carol J. Whitaker and Vickie Lynn Fouts Crivea; one niece, Dixie Fouts Price and six nephews, Jerry (Thomas) Buckley (Victoria), Lloyd Whitaker (Kelsey), Christopher Crivea (Kai), Ian Crivea (April Tincher), Jonathan Buckley (Meg), and Ryan Whitaker (Katrina) and many, many great‑nieces and nephews and aunts and uncles.

She was preceded in death by her loving parents, James R. and Georgia B. (Anderson) Fouts and one sister, Virginia (Jenny) Buckley Caldwell.

A funeral service will be held at 11:00 am, Thursday, March 9, 2017 in the chapel of Bryant‑Grant Funeral Home and Crematory with Rev. Phillip Cochran, Rev. David Hastings and Rev. Hank Conner officiating. Burial will follow in Fouts Cemetery. Pallbearers will be Jerry Buckley, Jonathan Buckley, Ryan Sorrells, Matthew Sorrells, Tony Hurst and Michael Wiggins. The family will receive friends Wednesday evening from 6 ‑ 8:00 pm at the funeral home.
