Mary was a resident of Alliance, Ohio since 1944 and graduated from Alliance High School in 1952. Many people knew her from working at the First National Bank of Alliance from 1951 thru 1978, before moving on to Stark County Data Processing Center for 18 years. She retired in 1997.

She loved travel and had been to all fifty states as well as traveling internationally to more than twenty countries. She was an avid reader and was seldom without a book nearby. Her favorite pass time was her music. She had been a vocal soloist in the area since she was 18. She particularly loved to sing music that praised God and always gave God credit for having given her the talent. She loved spending time with her family and friends.
