She attended Canton ATC for a few years before raising her five children. After supporting her children, she went to work as an Aide at Sunmount DDSO until she retired.
In addition to being a devoted mother and grandmother, Mary found great joy in the simple pleasures of life.
She had a deep love for music and cherished the moments when she could lose herself in the rhythm of a good tune. She also enjoyed spending time with friends at the VFW, where she felt a sense of camaraderie and belonging.
Whether it was sharing a laugh or enjoying a meal, Mary loved going out to dinner and creating memories with those around her. Above all, her children and grandchildren meant the world to her. She was a loving, selfless mother who raised five wonderful children, and her legacy lives on in the hearts of her family.
