What Maureen Said About Her Brother
In an interview, Maureen opened up about her family’s history with individuals with special needs. She explained that her mother and father spent their lives trying to enrich the lives of people like their son.

He spent years teaching and helping people with special needs. When Maureen’s brother, Denny, was born, doctors advised her parents to place him in an institution where he would get dedicated care. Instead, they took care of him themselves. It turned out to be the best option, as Maureen noted:

“He’s one of our greatest joys and gifts. He’s so pure, his heart is amazing.”

Maureen shares her parents’ humanitarian streak. After they passed away, she decided it was up to her to keep looking after her brother. She filed for conservatorship, and now she’s happy to say that she looks after Denny with the help of her husband.

Working with Denny also inspired her to get involved with the greater special needs community. The actress has partnered with the Special Olympics to spread a positive message and help promote inclusivity.
