Obituary of Mary Jane Dodman Kamrowski

Mary Jane Dodman Kamrowski, 88, passed away Friday, April 30, 2021 surrounded by her 3 children. 

 She was a loving wife to the late Gerome Kamrowski, and they were married almost 4 decades.  

 Mary Jane was born in Chicago on June 10, 1932, to the late John A. Dodman and Marjorie Maguire Stewart. She met her former husband, John Tucker in Chicago, and they soon moved to Ypsilanti, MI to raise their growing family. She lived in Ann Arbor, Michigan for most of her life.  She was a nursery school teacher for many years, and the care of children was always very important to her, and her charitable contributions reflected that care. Mary Jane was also a talented doll maker and loving grandmother who enjoyed her dogs Rose and Jack immensely.  She enjoyed going to craft fairs and loved to go antiquing all of her long life. She moved to Kentucky 13 years ago. 

Mary Jane is survived by her 3 devoted children, Cynthia (Gary) Fordon of Versailles, Melissa (Mark) Houghton of Florida, John (Thelma E.) Tucker, Jr. of Michigan, and a step-son, Felix Kamrowski of Colorado; grandchildren, Charlotte (Sean) Perkins, MI, Michael (Megan) Tucker, PA, Sean (Amanda) Tucker, PA, Jordan Bailey, OR, Katherine Bailey, NY, and Kelly Starwas, MI; and great grandchildren, Tanner Perkins, Saycia Perkins, Harly Perkins, Ty Tucker, Dominick Tucker, Hudson Tucker, and Dominick Starwas.   

In addition to her husband, Gerome Kamrowski and parents, John Dodman and Marjorie Maguire Stewart, Mary Jane was preceded in death by her sisters, Diane Dodman Fast and Barbara Dodman Kelly.  

 Her family will gather in Michigan to honor her memory and bury her ashes in the near future. Clark Funeral Home in Versailles, Kentucky will oversee arrangements.
