Mary Ann (Cronin) Dalbeck

VASSALBORO – Mary Ann (Cronin) Dalbeck of Vassalboro passed away on Tuesday May 16, 2023 at home, with her two daughters by her side.
Mary Ann was born on Sept. 5, 1936 to Daniel J. and Bridget A. Cronin. She grew up in Hallowell and graduated from Hallowell High School in 1955.
Mary Ann worked for J.S. McCarthy Co, State of ME DOT, and Jos. Kirschner Co. After moving to Florida she worked for Martin Marietta Corporation and Shades of Green (formerly The Disney Inn) on WDW Resorts before returning to Maine when she retired.
Mary Ann was known as NaeNae by many who loved her. She never forgot birthdays and loved holidays as opportunities for sharing cards and a call. She was like a kid at Christmas time, loving the adventure of finding the perfect gifts. She was especially proud of her Irish heritage.
Besides her parents, Mary Ann was predeceased by her son Michael F. Berryman, an infant daughter Cecelia M. Berryman, her brothers Daniel J, Stephen, Dennis and their spouses, and her sister Eileen Cronin.
She is survived by her daughter and son-in-law Rachael and Ozzie Cummings of Vassalboro; her daughter and son-in-law Debbie and Darrin Cunningham of Augusta; her grandchildren Wendy and Randy (Sarah) Cummings, Tyler and Allyson Cunningham, Christopher, Joseph, Michelle, Andrew and Cecilia Berryman. She also leaves several great-grandchildren and many very special nieces and nephews.
At Mary Ann’s request there will be no visitation or funeral services, but family and friends may gather at her burial in the Cronin family plot in Hallowell Cemetery when a date is set.
