Mary Ann Aitutis

Mary Ann Aitutis, 94 (nee Baskovic) passed away in her sleep, peacefully, on September 10, 2024. She is preceded in death by her mother Mary Baskovic (nee Perhne), Father Frank Baskovic and brother Frankie Baskovic. She is survived by her beloved son Joey (Patti) Miskulin, Grandchildren John (Hallie) Miskulin, Mike (Kelly) Miskulin, Katie (Brian) O'Boyle and adored Great-grandchildren Joey, Ava Marie, Joey Ann, Jack, John-John, Corbin and Riley. Mary Ann was born and raised in Lyons, Illinois. She recalled fondly memories of growing up in a Slovenian family and the closeness she had with her parents. Mary Ann retired from CPC International after serving more than 30 years as the secretary to the assistant plant manager; a position of which she was very proud. After retiring, Mary Ann moved from Illinois to Nashville, TN to be closer to Joey, Patti and the kids. She was a member of "Key to the City" through which she enjoyed luncheons and other fun activities and other social outings. She also had a special group of "dear friends" she made while living on Cold Creek Trail. She enjoyed attending her grandkids sporting events, music and dance recitals and teaching them how to play poker and other card games. She would often come over on the weekends for poker tournaments or to go out for Mexican Nachos with extra-extra cheese sauce. In 2016 Mary Ann moved to Parker Place Gracious Retirement Living in Mentor, OH (again) to be closer to Joey, Patti and the kids. It was no secret Mary Ann loved most seeing her son, Joey, play music with the Riders in the Sky or at various Slovenian/Polka dances. She was extremely proud of her son and the Slovenian heritage and traditions of her father that Joey not only embraced but passed along to his children and grandchildren. She was even the first person to carry his accordion for him so he could go to lessons as a small child; a memory Joey has cherished and appreciated his entire life and career. Mary Ann loved and was loved by her family and had a beautiful life. She will be missed but her memory will live on in each of us. A funeral mass of Christian burial will take place on October 19 th at 11:00am at Divine Word Catholic Church in Kirtland, OH, with a light reception/luncheon to follow in the church hall. Arrangements Entrusted to the Monreal Srnick Funerals & Cremations, 35400 Curtis Blvd, Eastlake
