Mary was born in Bruno, Saskatchewan on January 31, 1927 and moved to Kenora when she was 13 years old. She married her husband Jack in 1951 and together they raised their family at their home in Lakeside. Mary was a member of Notre Dame Catholic Church and the Catholic Women’s League. She was a devoted mother, grandmother and great grandmother. Her family was the most important thing in her life.
