Maureen relocated to Clear Lake City in 1981 from Greeley, Colorado, where she spent her childhood. She is survived by her sisters, Sheila Daily Dell’Osso of Clear Lake City, Marcee Daily Chipman of Vichy, France and her brother, F.

At the time of her death, she was a few months short of retirement from MD Anderson, where she worked for the last 25 years as a Research Data Analyst for blood diseases. Maureen was dedicated to her career and including her previous employment at the UT Health Science Center, she was just shy of completing 40 years of service in the Houston Medical Center working for the University of Texas.
Maureen was very devoted to her family and loved spending time with her many friends. She enjoyed traveling, playing duplicate bridge, bunco and reading. She was a longtime member of the P.E.O.

Many prayers to those who had the honor to know Maureen. She was such an approachable coworker. I enjoyed hearing her stories about her many hobbies. Maureen will surely be missed.
My thoughts and prayers go out to Maureen’s family. She was a team member and co-worker and we worked together on several vital and important projects at UT-MDACC. She was a wonderful, super person and I will truly miss her.
My deepest sympathy to Moe’s family as her passing was such a shock. I knew Moe when I lived in Clearlake and we kept in touch sharing Christmas cards. Moe will be missed by a lot of people but she is enjoying her new life in heaven.
I just don’t have the words. I’m so surprised and grieving her loss. Moe was one of my first and closest friends in Houston. We shared dreams, laughter and tears, at one time an apartment, and she was with me when I met my husband. I will miss her dearly! Unfortunately, John and I are out of the country and not able to get back in time for the funeral. Our heart goes out to all her family and friends.
So sorry for your lose she will be missed I meet Moe at the Church
Group in Clear Lake an knew her for a long time.want be able to go to
Funeral.
I was shocked and sad to learn of Mo’s passing. I met her through my sister, Denise, when she joined us and our parents for dinner to talk about her trip to Ireland. It was then that I told myself that I would visit the home of my ancestors, too. I will miss her and have dear memories of conversing with her during our many BUNCO games.
It’s just so hard to know Moe won’t be with us anymore. She had such a beautiful influence on my life – got me involved at St.B’s, introduced me to my husband, laughed her contagious giggle with me on the tennis court, bunco friend for 30 years, carpool and bus buddy to work at MD Anderson. I can’t imagine life without her. So grateful we recently lunched together and visited at bunco. Hug your loved ones. I’ll miss you, Moe 💜
My sincere condolences to the Daily family. May you find comfort in your memories of Maureen, she was a beautiful lady. May God comfort you during this difficult time. I knew Maureen not only from working at UT, but our van pool days, and Metro bus days to the Medical Center. We had some great conversations. She will be deeply missed. Rest in Peace Maureen🙏🏻🙏🏻
My thoughts and prayers go out to Maureen’s family specially her nephew and nieces that she loved so dearly. We worked in the same department and it was always a joy to stop by and have a small talk with her. One of the greatest memories of Maureen is when she dance with my husband in a Christmas department party. Therefore, from my husband and I receive our deepest sympathy. Rest in Peace in the arms of our dear Lord and Savior Jesus-Christ.
I will truly miss Maureen and our time together having a meal or snacks together at my house or at a nearby restaurant. Over the years, we shared time in taking care of her sister, Sheila, and, brother-in-law, Nick’s house, while they were out of town. And, we were rewarded many times wifh a delicious meal by the both of them afterwards. She was a dear friend and I know my deceased husband, Jerry, cared for her as well. After morning Mass today, some of her friends from St. Bernadette’s Church were expressing their deep sorrow at the loss of a beautirul friend. I concur. May our Lord grant her his eternal Peace and Love.
Sincere condolences to the Daily family. I worked with Maureen for many years, her light will be very missed.
