Obituary for Ann M. Machul

Machul, Ann M.
Frankenmuth, Michigan

Our beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, and aunt, Ann M. (Salak) Machul passed away in the evening hours of Tuesday, August 2, 2022 at Covenant HealthCare – Cooper in Saginaw, Michigan. Age 90 years. Ann was born on October 9, 1931 in Saginaw, Michigan to the late Emil and Josephine (Toma) Salak. On May 22, 1965 in Saginaw, Michigan Ann married the love of her life, Richard J. Machul, and he preceded her in death on February 13, 2006. Ann played numerous roles throughout her lifetime, but nothing was more important to her than caring for her home and her family. Ann was a longtime member of Blessed Trinity Catholic Church. She loved cooking, reading, and crocheting. Ann’s favorite pastime was testing her luck at the casino; as the years passed Ann’s dedication grew greatly. With her many joys in life, nothing brought her more happiness than being surrounded by her family. Ann will be missed dearly by all, and her memories cherished forever.

Left to cherish her memories are her three daughters, Debby (Jeff) Frelitz of Saginaw; Sandy (John) Toth of Birch Run; and Patty (Ken) Kempisty of New Baltimore; six grandchildren, Ryan Toth, Frank Porter, Rachel, Jessica, Anthony, and Benjamin Kempisty; two great-grandchildren, Jayden and Jason Porter; and several nieces and nephews. Ann is happily reunited with her husband, Richard J. Machul; granddaughter, Kristina Toth; parents, Emil and Josephine (Toma) Salak; two brothers and four sisters, Emil Salak, Steve Salak, Josephine Hunt, Rose Hines, Margaret Sodd, and Mary Salak; and one infant brother.
