She was a retired employee of Fruit of the Loom in Campbellsville after thirty plus years of service. Mary provided many great Sunday dinners for the family and her salmon patties were the best.

Mary had a way of always seeing good in everything, could always make you smile and had faith that God would work things out for the best. She was an avid crocheter, blessing her family with many special handmade items such a doilies and Christmas ornaments.
