Maureen Sue Metz Obituary

Maureen Sue Metz, age 67, passed away suddenly on May 13, 2025. Born on October 8, 1957, in Detroit, Michigan, to John and Beverly Goloback, Maureen, along with her twin sister Michele, was the youngest of five children. She grew up in Royal Oak, and she attended St. Dennis Catholic School and graduated from Bishop Foley High School in 1975. She went on to earn a bachelor of science degree from Michigan State University in 1979.

From an early age, Maureen had a natural gift for caring for others, a calling she fulfilled through her work as a registered dietician. She dedicated many years to Beaumont Hospital, and extended her expertise through her private nutrition practice, guiding countless individuals to better health with compassion and skill.

Maureen's heart, however, was always with her family. She had a rare talent for bringing people together and loved hosting lively, joy-filled gatherings for any occasion. Her cooking was exquisite—her dishes lovingly prepared and always a hit with the crowd. She had a way of making everyone feel welcome, nourished, and at home.

In recent years, Maureen found immense joy in spending time with her four cherished grandchildren. She poured her love into every moment with them, creating memories they will treasure forever.

Maureen will always be remembered for her bright and witty personality. She had a deep appreciation for the arts and creativity, and was an avid gardener.

She will be deeply missed.

Maureen was the beloved wife of Keith; loving mother of Erin Rice (Tim) and Chris (Jackie); devoted Gammy of Jack, Patrick, Lily, and James; dear sister of Mark Goloback, Mary Schaum (Rich), Mike Goloback (Debbie), and Michele Myles (Scott). She is also survived by many loving nieces and nephews.

Family will receive friends Thursday 3-8pm at A.J. Desmond & Sons Funeral Home, 2600 Crooks (btw Maple & Big Beaver), Troy, 248-362-2500. Funeral mass Friday 11am at Our Lady of Victory Catholic Church, 133 Orchard Dr., Northville. Visitation at church begins 10:30am.
