She loved her flower gardens and could often be seen sitting on the porch swing listening to gospel music. She was an avid church member and looked forward to Sunday potlucks. She had a love for animals and owned many throughout her life.

Mary never met a stranger and was loved by many. She had a big heart and had many friends that she considered family. She will be deeply missed by those who knew her as family and friend.
