Mary Jo English, age 75, a lifelong resident of Scranton, passed away Thursday at Hospice Community Care in Dunmore. Her husband, the late Francis Ambrose English, died on October 3, 1974. Born in Scranton on August 6, 1936, Mary Jo had worked as a self-employed home health care aide prior to her retirement. Of Roman Catholic faith, she was a ember of St. Peter's Cathedral in Scranton. An antique collector, her favorite pastime was being with her family. A loving mother, grandmother, relative and friend, she will be dearly missed. Her family would like to express their gratitude to both her dearest and closest friends and the staff of Hospice Community Care for all of their unconditional care and support. She is survived by her four children, Dawn English of Proctor, West Virginia, Frank English of Dupont, James English of Mechanicsville, Virginia, and Heather English-Kranda of Chester, VA; two siblings; and ten beloved grandchildren. Private arrangements are under the care of the Kearney Funeral Homes, Inc., Old Forge and Scranton. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made in Mary Jo's name to the American Cancer Society, 712 South Keyser Avenue, Taylor.
