Carole attended Greendale Grade School, Lawrenceburg High School and graduated from Indiana University with bachelor of science degrees in criminology and psychology. Likewise, her sisters, Gail. Nancy, and Jean, all graduated from IU with degrees in education. Carole leaves behind a legacy of what can be achieved with hard work, dedication and the necessity to raise a family on your own. Her devotion to her sons and their respect and love for her made the family a pillar of admiration around the community of Manassas. She had several positions in the juvenile justice field and often worked extra jobs to provide for the family. For many years she was a juvenile probation officer and intake supervisor for Prince William County, until her retirement in 2000. Carole raised her children to always respect others and never give up no matter how difficult life can be. She had a great sense of humor and calmness about her that always put people around her at ease. In 2012, an old classmate from grade school and high school contacted her when she didn't show up for her 50-year reunion, that led to their marriage on her birthday in 2003. Carole then became the wife of *Augustus Cook. They resided in Acworth, GA, on a lake until she made the recent visit to her son's home for the holidays. Her laughter, warmth, and caring nature will he truly missed by all who knew her. She defined the term “Mother" and will live forever in our hearts. Her life was celebrated in Manassas, VA. Gus Cook, Carole’s husband, wrote from Acworth, GA: Carole* passed on January 8, 2018. She had several instances of pneumonia following a 2014 surgery that left her in intensive care for 31 days. We had a wonderful life together before that incident Gus and I are retired, living in Georgia on a 30 acre lake north of Marrietta. If you drive up I-75 north of Atlanta, we are only a short distance off the highway. Graduates, March 2015 I married a young man from Gary, Indiana that I met at school after I graduated from Indiana University. We had five sons. We moved to California and then to Virginia. I was divorced about 11 years later and never remarried. I was fortunate enough to get a job as a Juvenile Probation Officer with the state court system here in Virginia and worked there for 28 years until I retired 01/01/00. I loved my job but wanted to sleep late for a while. At this time I have 7 grandchildren; the youngest is three days old and the oldest is 14 years old. One son lives in NJ with his family, two live in Maryland with their families, and 2 live here in Manassas, Va. I have been blessed with the chore of baby-sitting three grandchildren ages 11, 8, and 6. They keep me moving. I get to go swimming, play miniature golf, go bowling and watch the Disney channel on TV and call it work! I love it. Although I have emphysema, I feel really good, it just slows me down a bit. I have been truly blessed! Carole - August 4, 2002 Click here for the rest of the story:

Mary Ann Ryan - 12/20/1934 - 8/16/2022 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Mary Ann Ryan of Lawrenceburg, IN at the age of 87 years at Shady Nook Care Center. She will be lovingly remembered and dearly missed by her brother, Michael (Vera) of Osoyoos, BC, Canada, niece, Kathleen; nephew, Marc (Emily); great-nephew, Lee and great-niece, Silvie of Toronto, ON, Canada and cousins, Rollin (Marlene) Manford, Gary Manford, Douglas (Carolyn) Manford, Stephen (Sue) Manford, Patrick Ryan and god-child, Michelle Fries. Mary Ann was preceded in death by her parents, Edward and Marguerite and two infant brothers, John Edward and Sonny as well as her cousin Jim Ryan. She graduated from St. Lawrence School and Lawrenceburg Consolidated High School and was a life-long member of St. Lawrence Parish. Mary Ann worked for 45 years at Greendale Utility where she rose to be Office Manager. Mary Ann excelled in school and found her artistic talent through high school art classes. She worked in various media: charcoal, pen & ink and oil. She was extremely active in her parish church community in Religious Education, as a member of the Legion of Mary and as Liturgical Coordinator as well as serving as a regular lector and Eucharistic Minister. Coffee with friends after morning Mass and a standing reservation at Whisky's for dinner following Saturday evening Mass were regular pleasures for Mary Ann. She also loved music and drama and held season's tickets at the Playhouse in Cincinnati. Mary Ann returned to college in 1981 to obtain her B.A. degree as a mature student at Mount St. Joseph on the Ohio. After 6 1/2 years of attending weekend and night classes, she graduated magna cum laude with her bachelor's degree in Liberal Arts and Psychology. Travel brought her great pleasure, especially trips to the North Carolina seashore. Perhaps her most memorable trips were to Ireland, Scotland and England with four friends in 1972 and to Einsiedeln, Switzerland in 2003. In 2013, after a fall, Mary Ann moved from her home in Greendale to Pine Knoll Assisted Living Center where she spent four contented years in the company of a number of friends and fellow parishioners. In 2018, she moved to Shady Nook Care Center where she could receive more appropriate care. I graduated from the College of Mount St. Joseph in May 1987. I retired six and a half years ago from Greendale Utilities where I was office manager and bookkeeper. I am planning to move soon to 25 Cook Avenue in Greendale, as we have a sale pending on the home I have lived in since I was three years old. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone at the reunion. - July 2002

Deceased	EUGENE STAHL The sun set, but set not his hope. Biology Club 1; FBLA 3; Class Officer 4; Track 1. I just learned yesterday that Gene Stahl died a few weeks ago. I'm not sure if I gave you any information about him. He did respond to the first letter by e-mail, but said he would be unable to attend because of his health. He traveled to various parts of the world with the military for 21 years and in 1976 retired and settled in Texas. I obtained his address from his sister, who lives in this area. April 4, 2002 - Mary Ann Letter to Carole Metz - 10/20/2001: Carol, I don't remember exactly who you are, but do recognize the address in Greendale. I, too have not attended past reunions due to college and a subsequent 21 year career in the Army. I retired and decided to settle in Texas as it is less cold than in Indiana. I have often thought back to the size of our graduating class as opposed to ones today. The reason I can't make it is my health doesn't permit me to travel very easy anymore. I have what they call C.O.P.D. which is a lung disease which is a combination of bronchitis and emphysema from smoking too much in my earlier years. I am on oxygen about 16 hours a day and when I'm not, I have it with me all the time. I ride around in a motorized wheel chair because of the shortness of breath when I walk too much. Hence, with all the breathing treatments I have to take and the oxygen and all, it's like getting a dog and pony show together to travel. And then too, the airlines requires special arrangements if you are on oxygen. They have to provide it, you can't use your own. All this since the Valu-Jet crash incident. Enough of this rambling, I told Shirley to send me the e-mail addresses of other class members who had them. Almost forgot, I did marry, have two boys and a daughter and six grandchildren. Two of the grandchildren graduated from high school this year, so could have great grandchildren any time although I hope not. Would love to see them get their education first. Good to hear from you, Gene. Gene is in Texas and can't come for health reasons, but would like to hear from others with e-mail addresses. January, 2002
