Mary Ann was born on August 30, 1940 to John and Loretta (Flanagan) Cullinan in Hudson, South Dakota. She graduated from High School in Rock Valley, IA in 1958 and attended Cosmetology School in Sioux Falls, SD. On November 30, 1968 she was united in marriage to Dale N. Hague in Rock Valley, IA. She worked at various places: Bertha's Beauty Shop, Buhl's Laundry, Sunshine Nursing Home, Yankton Care Center, Avera Sacred Heart Hospital, and also operated Home Day Care Service. Mary Ann was a member of St. Benedict Catholic Church.
The greatest joy of her life was making for her family a home that was both a place of refuge from the chaotic world and a place of love for all who entered it. For the longest time, she enjoyed the viewing of theatrical presentation of the martial art genre especially the works of Bruce Lee and Steven Seagal. For Mary, the time spent visiting with family and friends was one to be cherished and looked forward to with anticipation. Mary enjoyed the simple pleasure of shopping.
Those who will always cherish her memory are her two sons: Patrick J. Hague and Bradley W. Hague both of Yankton, SD; two sisters: Cleon (Ralph) Augustine of Remsen, IA and Barbara (Andrew) DeJager of Yankton, SD; four nieces and five nephews.
She was preceded in death by her husband and her parents.
