Obituary of Mary Ann Milacek

Mary Ann (Cooper) Milacek

November 1, 1953- January 19, 2024

Mary Ann Milacek, 70, of Lyons, Colorado passed away peacefully surrounded by loved ones in her home of 44 years. She is survived by her three children Andie (Clinton), Justus (Summer), Aaron.

Mary Ann was “Ma Mah” to all of her grandchildren. They were blessed to grow up with her in their lives. She was a beautiful, caring, generous, loving and thoughtful Ma Mah to them and many other children that she so graciously helped raise.

Mary Ann always loved to help others in need. She practiced metaphysical and spiritual healing to help people balance their body and mind.

Mary Ann was born in Rapid City, South Dakota and raised in Gillette, Wyoming where many family and friends still reside. At 19, she moved to Longmont, Colorado where she met her husband, Leon Milacek. They built a one of a kind home together north of Lyons in only eight years. She took charge in making it a home with her love and decorations as they raised their family there to this day. 

She loved to belly dance, soak in the hot springs in Idaho Springs and travel to the warm Hawaiian Islands. Mary Ann especially enjoyed her visit to Maui with Leon.

A celebration of life will be held at Lionscrest Manor in Lyons, CO January 29th, 2024 from 1:00-3:00 p.m. Carroll-Lewellen Funeral Home is in charge of arrangements. 

Refreshments will be provided and close family and friends are invited to attend the burial at her home in Lyons immediately following the ceremony.
