Mary Benedict

May 26, 1955 — October 28, 2024

Mary Ann Benedict, a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, daughter, sister, cousin, and friend, peacefully entered the presence of her Lord and Savior on October 28, 2024. Born on May 26, 1955, in Troy, Alabama, Mary Ann lived a life filled with love, kindness, and unwavering faith, leaving an indelible mark on all who knew her.

For 29 years, she shared a deep and devoted marriage with her husband, Michael Lee Benedict, the love of her life and steadfast partner. Together, they built a life rich with love, laughter, and joy. Mary Ann was predeceased by her parents, Edlo Price and Sara Frances Price, and her brother, John Earl Price, whose memories she carried in her heart.

She will be forever loved and deeply missed by her daughter, Mechelle Ann Conlon-Tyndall (William E. Tyndall), who was her pride and joy. Mary Ann was a devoted grandmother to her twin granddaughters, Maegan Ashleigh Conlon (Anthony Aranda) and Morgan Renee Conlon, as well as to Rilee Lynn Conlon, each of whom brought her boundless happiness and purpose. She also embraced her bonus grandchildren, Hannah Morgan Tyndall and Logan Edward Tyndall, with open arms and a heart full of love.

Mary Ann is survived by her brother, James Price (Joyce), and her sisters, Shirley Korp (John) and Judy Russell, who were not only her siblings but also her lifelong companions and friends. Her extended family included many loving cousins with whom she shared treasured memories, along with a wide circle of nieces, nephews, and friends who were blessed by her kindness, generosity, and warmth.

Her Christian faith was the guiding light of her life. Mary Ann lived her faith openly, reflecting God's love through her compassion, resilience, and dedication to others. Her presence reminded those around her of the peace and hope that comes from trusting in God’s love and promises.

Mary Ann Benedict was a beautiful soul who blessed the lives of all who knew her. Though she has left this world, her spirit lives on in every memory, every shared story, and every heart she touched. Her legacy of faith, love, and kindness will remain with us always, a testament to a life well-lived and deeply loved.
