Mary was a strong and hardworking woman. Her life revolved around her husband and the wonderful support they gave to each other. She also devoted herself to raising their two daughters, caring for them, educating, protecting, and guiding them throughout their lives. She enjoyed being involved in her community and was a member of the Order of the Eastern Star, a Daughter of the Nile, a Lady Shriner, a member of the Dune Buggy Unit, and also a Hobo Clown. In her later years, Mary enjoyed becoming a grandmother and was thrilled to watch her grandchildren grow. Her great-grandchildren filled her with vim and vigor as she tried to attend their many events. She had grown up in her father’s shadow and he would always bring her fishing, crabbing, and crawfishing, which became her guilty pleasure. Throwing her line on the water and patiently waiting for that nibble was always her peace and relaxation. She will be missed by all who were blessed to know her.
