Mary Ann Luedke

Mary was born in Glens Falls, NY on February 16, 1956 to Wilbur Abbott and Theresa Grady Abbott. She graduated from Whitehall High School in 1974. Mary moved from New York to Texas when she was 21 years old and that is where she raised her family and remained for the rest of her life. In 1997, she met and married her husband, Darryl Luedke and they spent the next 23 years together.

Mary’s career was spent working in grocery stores, most of that time was at Randall’s and in the last years for HEB. She was an extremely hard worker no matter what positions she held throughout the years. She was always showered with gifts during the holidays from her employees which is a testament to what kind of manager she was.

Mary enjoyed watching sports and throughout her life had golfed and participated in both bowling and shuffleboard leagues. She enjoyed good books and good food. But more than anything, she loved being at home, spending time with family and friends. An ideal night for Mary would be playing games and listening to music with those closest to her.

She is survived by her loving husband, Darryl. Her devoted children, Theresa Rodriguez (Daniel Chapman), Kenneth LeRoy, and Jill Luedke (Blake Bradford). She also leaves to cherish her memory her beloved grandchildren, Victoria, Christina, Abrianna, Star and Cyrus. As well as her loving brother Tom Abbott, wife Patti and her nieces and nephews. Also her Mother in Law, Delores Luedke as well as her Brother in Laws, David (Pam), Don (Bota) and Dwight.

She is preceded in death by Wilbur Abbott (father), Theresa Abbott (mother) and half-sister, Kathleen Fiorino.
