Mary Ann loved horses! Together they built two houses, raised their family there for 20 years. Mary Ann had the hardest job staying home and raising the kids, she kept the cleanest house, fixed the best meals, kept the nicest yard and helped Jay in the garage sanding and masking cars. Mary Ann was the best wife and mother! When Geneva closed they bought the Cedar Valley Country Store and moved to Cedar Fort.
