Currently retired from her profession of Nursing, for over 33 years Mary Anne drove to her place of employment, St. Joseph’s Hospital of Estevan where for the majority of her career she worked as the Director of Patient/Resident Care Services.

Balancing family, work and fun; Mary Anne has been an active volunteer in several areas over the years with roles ranging from Hockey Canada Director, Provincial Heart and Stroke Committee chair, Hockey Saskatchewan President, and continues as a Trustee for Southeast Regional Library.

As a grandmother of now 8 children, Mary Anne and husband Doug continue to live in their family home. Mary Anne loves spending time with grandkids, writes children’s books and dapples in pottery.

Mary Anne speaks of hope for the future as she recognizes there are unique skills common in all who identify as women and girls. They generally have a good memory for what happened, both the experience and emotion of it all. Women also seem to pay attention to the details and can, if they chose to, really listen to others and let them know they are heard. The future looks for women leaders being younger, our daughters and granddaughter will not get to say – “I’m the first girl, the first women to do this as all will belong to girls and women and proof of being overqualified will not be required. What a wonderful world.
