Grandchildren Lindsay (Tom) and Graeme (Nina) as well as great granddaughter Ellika. Mary is predeceased by her former husband Mac and father of her two children. Her family and friends will always remember her for her kindness, love of life and laughter. Mary loved to walk, and she could walk for hours around her neighbourhood. Her home-made soups were the best. Mary also leaves behind her brothers Jesse (Viola deceased), Aubrey (Myrtle) and sister Gladys (Dan deceased) and two nephews and one niece. The family would like to thank the wonderful, caring staff at Eastholme and Dr. Ng for their exceptional care and compassion over the last five years.
