Mary Ellen Carnes

Age 68 of Sharpsburg, passed away peacefully at home with family at her side on Thursday, April 18, 2024.

Mary was a retired Port Authority bus driver.  She would drop what she was doing to be there for anyone in need and never asked for anything in return. She was a mother to everyone and loved by so many. Her heart and love is indescribable. She kept Amazon and QVC in business. Loved to joke with everyone, make people happy and smile. Mary will be truly missed, and God has another angel by His side.
