 Mary Ann Mazzone

President Emeritus

Mary Ann Mazzone was the first President of the Person Centered Care Services Board of Directors, and she believed in PCCS before it was anything more than an idea. She was also the aunt of our founder, Dr. cRis marchioNNe, and her faith in that idea helped make it real.

Mary Ann spent her career on Staten Island caring for people living with HIV/AIDS, often when others turned away. She brought that same courage and warmth to PCCS. She led the board with a steady hand and an open heart until she retired in 2013.

Mary Ann passed away on December 31, 2025, at age 80. We honor her as President Emeritus. Her kindness is part of everything we do.
