Mary Ann is not the first person in her family to be committed to helping people live a better life at home.   Mary Ann’s mother, Gloria Fuentes, was recognized by Meals on Wheels of Tampa to kick off its “25 Days of Giving” Celebration:

Almost 40 years ago, this Tampa resident experienced difficulty when caring for her two home-bound relatives who lived on opposite sides of the city.
