Mary Ann Platta

Mary Ann Platta, 70, of Custer, passed away Sunday, August 30, 2020, at home with her loving husband and children. Mary Ann was born on November 23, 1949, in Stevens Point to Leonard and Delphine (Zywicki) Shulfer. She married the love of her life Daniel Platta on June 22, 1968, in Amherst, WI. They settled into the family farm and started a family.

Mary Ann loved to cook and throw parties, she looked forward to Pinochle parties and sharing laughs with friends, of course not without the occasional cocktail, she especially loved a Harvey Wall Banger. Another past time she enjoyed was watching the Badgers, Brewers and the Packers play and giving Dad the score updates.

She worked on the family farm, cooked at Sacred Heart School, and then as the secretary at Sacred Heart Church. Mary Ann always had a warm heart and a shoulder to lean on. Her biggest joy was spending time with her husband, children, grandchildren, family, and friends.

Survived by her husband Daniel and five children; Kenneth (Mary Jo) Platta, Ron (Julie Bruski) Platta, Donna (Keith) Gullikson, David Platta, Julie (Corey) Jorgenson.
