Mary Ferry Bigelow passed away on March 5, 2020, at the age of 72. Mary is preceded in death by her parents, Marguerite Charbonnet Ferry and Henry Joseph Ferry. Mary is fondly remembered as a devoted and loving friend. She touched the lives of everyone who ever knew her in her career as an accomplished interior decorator or as a passer-by in her building. Mary was never without her best friend and companion – her standard poodle Tyler. She graduated from the Pratt School of Design in New York and was published in several books and Interior Design magazine, and she designed the interiors of many homes around the country. Mary was well known for her love of colors both in her wardrobe and her home. She loved flowers, mainly pink and purple, and was very artistic in flower arranging. At Christmas, you could always find her selling her paperwhites. Her last job was the King of Hermes's luncheon at Antoine’s.
