Mary Ann Currier in her own quiet and unassuming manner has served not only on the Maine Council for 7 years but also at the Chapter level where she served as President, and Vice President. She retired with 32 years service from Verizon, and is a Life Member. The unique thing about serving on the Jasper Keller Chapter is sharing the responsibility of three states; Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont. Mary Ann Currier has helped, not only in her own community and state but on projects in other states as well. She helped secure space at 1 Davis Farm Rd, Portland, Maine for a Verizon TelcomPioneer Museum where valuable telephone memorabilia could be displayed. Actually, the Pioneer Museum was set up twice, as space was taken over by other work groups. Mary Ann felt it was important to keep a spot on company property to allow the Life Member Clubs space to work on their projects and hold meetings.

Spending many hours working on Special Olympics has always been a favorite pastime for Mary Ann, involving both family and a lot more friends, old and new. She developed a survey to help the Maine Special Olympics determine how to better their existing program and expand it to more campers. She sent the survey to old and current campers and agencies and tabulated their responses. The survey helped to streamline some services and expand on others. Mary Ann always kept fund raising a priority to help keep the programs afloat. She has helped on the Winter and Summer Special Olympic Games in Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont.
