Mary Ann Rescino Obituary

Mary Ann Rescino
02/15/1939 - 06/30/2025
Mary Ann Emma Rescino passed away peacefully on June 30, 2025, in San Francisco, California. Born on February 15, 1939, to Eleanor Baldelli and Rebaris Tombolesi, she grew up in the Portola District of San Francisco and graduated from Balboa High in 1956.
She married John Rescino in 1960 and gave birth to their first son Bob. In 1966 her twins, Joe and Jim Rescino were born. The family relocated to Pacifica, where Mary Ann bought the family home on Catalina Avenue. This is where she lived for the next 60 years, raising her family.
Her bond with her older sister Nadine was beautiful and special. Affectionately known as "Babe" by her family, Mary Ann and Nadine were inseparable, often seen going to the movies and out to dinner with their beloved mother, Eleanor. She adored her nieces Reyna and Regina and nephews John and Rick, raising her boys alongside them.
To her grandchildren-Whitney, Robert, and Monique Rescino-she was affectionately known as "Nonnie." She cherished every moment with them, pouring her love, wisdom, and strength into bonds that will last indefinitely.
Mary Ann leaves behind two daughters-in-law, Marla and Barbara Rescino. She was at her happiest when she was surrounded by her entire family.
Celebrated for her bright spirit, quiet generosity, and amazing sense of humor, Mary Ann inspired those around her to live with heart, humility, and joy. She offered unconditional love to all who crossed her path.
Even when life presented the difficult challenge of a Parkinson's diagnosis in her late 60s, she met it with grace. She never let it define her, instead channeling her strength into caring for others and embracing life's beauty wherever she found it.
She will be deeply missed by her family.
A celebration of life will be held at Chapel By the Sea in Pacifica, CA, on July 17th, at 11:00 am. All are welcome to join.
