Family and friends may visit from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Friday, January 2, 2026, at Leonard Funeral Home & Crematory, 2595 Rockdale Road, Dubuque, Iowa, with a service beginning at 5:00 p.m.

Mary Ann was born in Dubuque on January 20, 1935, the daughter of Wesley and Lucille (Verdon) Weidenbacher. She attended Dubuque Senior High School, where she was crowned Homecoming Queen in 1953, graduating later that same year. It was also during her time at Senior High that she met the love of her life, George Huseman. The two were united in marriage on September 4, 1954, at St. Matthew’s Lutheran Church.

A dedicated professional, Mary Ann worked for the John Deere Corporation for 30 years, retiring in 1991. Following her retirement, she moved to Phoenix, Arizona, where she embraced her vibrant personality as the social director for her retirement community.

Mary Ann was a woman of many talents and hobbies. She was an avid bowler, a skilled euchre player, and was well-versed in nearly every kind of craft. Her energy and social spirit touched many lives throughout her journey.

She is survived by her two sons, Ron (Colleen) Huseman and Rick (Sue) Huseman, both of Dubuque; two grandchildren, Amy Huseman and Aaron (Becky) Huseman; two great-grandchildren, Connor and Jaiden Huseman; sister Sandy Lamb of Chandler, AZ; and two brothers, Roger Weidenbacher of Texas, and Tom Weidenbacher of Dubuque, IA.

She was preceded in death by her parents Wesley and Lucille Weidenbacher; her husband George Huseman; her brothers Wes (Sonny) Weidenbacher and Keith Weidenbacher; and sister Diane Bargman.

The family wishes to extend their gratitude to the staff at Hawkeye Care Center and Hospice of Dubuque, especially her nurse Peggy, for their care and compassion.
