Ann M Maccabee (Barr)

Ann Maureen Quain Barr Maccabee, the matriarch and “CEO” of a long-time family from North Tarrytown (Sleepy Hollow), whose life was built around the kindness and love that flows from a close-knit family and community, died peacefully on Wednesday, December 14th at Tarry Hall. Her life came full circle, as it was also the place where she was born on August 5th, 1933. Ann was the second child of Francis X. Quain and Mary Gavin. She was raised in a loving community along with her siblings in Webber Park. She went to grammar school at Saint Teresa in North Tarrytown and graduated from North Tarrytown High School. She married Jack Barr in 1954 in North Tarrytown, where they raised their 4 children. Ann was very active, volunteering for any school activities & functions, as well as assisting with any of the sports teams that her children were involved in. She worked at the First National Bank of North Tarrytown as a teller, where she was known for her smiling face and kindness. She always made all of her customers feel like they were the most important person in the bank. In 1990 she married Richard Maccabee. They moved to Florida in 1994. Ann was very active in her Church, Our Lady of Fatima, where she became President of the Catholic Women’s Club. Ann was the President of her women’s golf league, where she relished in her great accomplishment of a hole in one. Ann will truly be missed for her kindness, gentle manor, & laughter. She would always say, “I’ve got to keep you laughing,” which she maintained throughout her health issues. Ann is survived by her daughters, Cathy (Dave) and Maureen, and son, Sean.
