Maryann Jennifer Ullrich Ahern

Maryann Jennifer Ullrich Ahern of Plano, TX, was born April 23, 1959 in Brooklyn, NY, and passed away July 23, 2018 in Sachse, TX. Maryann was the daughter of John and Dorothy Ahern, and had three brothers—John, Brian, and Kenneth—and a sister, Susan. She spent her childhood in Rockville Centre, NY, where she graduated from Saint Agnes High School. There, she developed her tough and fun-loving New Yorker attitude—an attitude she cherished for the rest of her life. She moved to Plano, TX, where she earned a degree in business administration in 1988 at The University of Texas at Dallas. Maryann was most proud of her four children: Tim, Annie, Katie, and Mikaela. She was a loving mother, friend, and supporter whose memory will be with them always. Her friends and family could always rely on her to be in their corner and to share the burden of life's challenges. Maryann loved life and rarely stopped smiling. She had an upbeat nature and a contagious excitement, which she enjoyed sharing with others. If she had it her way (which she usually did), her remaining years would have been spent suntanning on the beach and supporting country music. Maryann is survived by her children: Tim Ullrich, Annie Northcutt, Katie Ullrich, Mikaela Kubes; and family members Tim Ullrich, Dennis Kubes, Susan Ahern, John Ahern, and Kenneth Ahern.
