Clifford White for 58 years. She is survived by her three daughters, Deborah Wright (Charles), Pamela Oberfeld, Mary Beth White-Comstock (Larry); five grandchildren, Shannon and Carrie Wright, Brooke Monroe, Braden Russell, Haley Wilson; nine great grandchildren, sister-in-law, Gay White Ruff and niece, Sarah Bruin McClellan. Mary is the youngest of eight children. Brothers, Clarence, Jim, John, and Berkley and sisters Betty Hale Callahan, Hazel Hale Boschen, and Lillian Hale Powers
Mary was a gentle, sweet and loving soul, with exceptional talents as a seamstress, kindergarten teacher and Girl Scout leader. She enjoyed being encircled by family and friends; summer days boating, fishing and crabbing at the river; playing croquet and Scrabble, and enjoying lively conversation. Her love of family, sense of humor, patience and talents will be deeply missed by all. She never ended a visit or phone call without saying, “I love you!”
A celebration of Mary’s life will be held on June 20, 2020 at 1:00 pm via live stream on Facebook at www.facebook.com/woodyatlee. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the charity of your choice.
