Mary was an amazing mother and woman, devoted to her family. Leaning into her natural motherly nurturing side, she found herself teaching preschoolers for some time. She enjoyed this role very much. Having had so many other passions throughout her life, Mary also became a business owner of Plants and Things in Amherstburg. This was a beautiful and rewarding endeavor in so many ways. 

She was a wonderful florist; she truly enjoyed her time in the garden and had even been a decorated lifelong member of the Horticultural Society, so she was really doing what she loved. The most rewarding part for Mary was that many of her daughters worked with her each day. 

She was an active member of the Seniors Society and served as President on their committee. Mary was also honoured as Amherstburg’s Senior Citizen of the year in 2013. She was a special woman in all the roles she filled. 

Playing cards with friends, golfing and being with her family and friends were some of her favorite times and best memories made. They will be remembered by all who had the honour of sharing these precious moments with her. 

The family would like to especially thank the wonderful staff of 3 East at Richmond Terrace and Dr. Tim O’Callahan for the exceptional care our mother received. Special thanks also to Connie McLellan for keeping our beautiful mother looking her best.
