Mary Jane Eck

She was born on July 3, 1952 in Margaretville, the daughter of Arthur and Laura (Mansheffer) Pindar. She married Peter M. Eck on August 10, 1991.

Mary was employed for 17 years at Amphenol in Sidney and later worked for 13 years at Acco Brands. She retired from SUNY Oneonta.

In her retirement, Mary loved and enjoyed family. She cherished her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. She loved to read most anything. An animal lover, she had many dogs and cats over the years and also kept horses on her property for quite a while. She was a special lady who will be sorely missed.

Mary is survived by her husband Peter; her children, Rodney (Erica) Mulford of Raleigh, NC, Jennifer (Paul) Oakley of Grand Island, FL, and Matthew Mulford of Oneonta; eight grandchildren; two great grandchildren; her siblings, Joann Rottingen (Jeff Pidgeon), Nancy (Demming) Lindsley, David (Ann Marie) Pindar, Carol Schmitt, Kathleen (Marc) Niles, Bob (Michelle) Pindar; and many in-laws, nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.

She was predeceased by her parents, and three very special brother in laws, Jim Bellinger, Paul Rottingen, and Stephen Schmitt.

Friends are invited to greet the family on Saturday, December 3, from 3 to 6 PM at the Lester R. Grummons Funeral Home, 14 Grand Street, Oneonta.
