Maureen was born in Manhattan, New York to Charles Traynor and Mary Drumn on February 11, 1933. At age 12 her family moved to West Haven, Connecticut where she attended a Catholic school throughout her elementary years. She graduated from West Haven High School in 1951 and from there was employed at the telephone company. About two years later she met the love of her life, Lawrence (Larry) Case, at her close friend’s wedding rehearsal. She and Larry were both part of the wedding party. They fell in love and were married on September 11, 1954 in Connecticut. They moved to Massachusetts until Larry was out of the Air Force. From there they moved back to Larry’s family farm where Maureen had lots of fun times adjusting to farm life vs. city life. Larry and Maureen settled down on the dairy farm in Brighton, Colorado where they raised 5 children, Terrie, Ellen, Barbara, Linda and Larry.
Maureen was a homemaker who dedicated her life and time to God, her husband, children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. She loved to spend her Sundays with her family who meant so much to her. Maureen was a member of a small group of women that called themselves the “Snazzy Grandmas”. Larry was an active member of The Knights of Columbus and they both spent and enjoyed many Saturday nights there with dinners and polka dances. She was an active member at St. Augustine Catholic Church in Brighton, Colorado and was in the Altar and Rosary Society. In 2001 they retired and moved to Hudson, Colorado and became members at St. Williams Catholic Church in Ft. Lupton, Colorado.
