She was a devoted and loving wife, mother, grandmother, and homemaker, a role that came to her naturally as she was nurturing, good natured and kind to all who knew her. Mary's passion for cooking and gardening brought her great joy and she shared them with all she knew. Her love of nature was evident graced by her green thumb. Her gardens flourished and she enjoyed the many visits by her treasured humming birds and her daily friendly neighbors and porch friends.

Their bond was deep and full of love, wisdom, patience, and laughter, Our memory box is full and sealed with her big smile. Mary was a member of the former Corpus Christi Church in Wethersfield.
