Mary Ann (Kozosky) Markusic

Mary Ann (Kozosky) Markusic, 80, passed away Sunday, January 17, 2021 with her family by her side.

Mary Ann was the true definition of daughter, wife, mother, sister, grandmother and friend. Never choosing to be in the spotlight, her lifelong acts of kindness and thoughtfulness illuminated her endlessly. Her happiest days were spent in the kitchen cooking and baking. From homemade baby food (because nothing was too good for her granddaughters) to 10 course meals so that everybody would get to enjoy their favorite food, nothing brought her more pleasure than to make others happy. She too, is now happy in the arms of her parents and husband, who were waiting to welcome her into the kingdom of heaven.

Mary Ann is survived by her daughter, Kimberly Markusic Brown; granddaughters, Elizabeth and Catherine Brown; brother, Stephen Kozosky; brother-in-law, Ronald Greenburg; sister-in-law, Sophie Capan; brother-in-law, Douglas Mark & Wife Cathy and numerous nieces, nephews and cousins.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Stephen & Anna Kozosky and husband of 54 years, Rudolph Markusic.

In lieu of flowers the family is asking donations be made in memory of Mary to The Alzheimers Association, 2835 E. Carson St., Suite 200, Pittsburgh, PA 15203.

Due to COVID-19 restrictions, private visitation will be held for the family on Wednesday, January 20 from 5-7 PM in the Shell Funeral Home, Inc., 164 S. Mt. Vernon Ave. A blessing service will take place at 6 PM with Pastor Terry Sanders officiating.
