Mary Ann Huffaker Yount, 72, passed away in her home in Burbank, CA on Thursday, February 9, 2012 in the presence of loved ones. She fought ocular melanoma cancer 13 years ago, but it returned.

She was born in Troy, OH, raised on the family farm where she got her love for animals, was a cheerleader and graduated from Milton-Union High School. She worked at Areoproducts, Huffaker Plumbing and Heating, Ryder, and Par. Along with her husband and daughter Susanne, she moved to California in 1987, but always loved going back to the Troy and West Milton area to visit family and friends. She was a dedicated mother and wife, enjoyed being with family and friends, a night out with the girls, music, dancing, and reading.
