Mary and I were colleagues in the Social Studies Department. Her creativity, energy, support, sense of fun and professionalism made her a valued member of the department. We all loved working with her.
Jim and family, you are in my thoughts.

Jim, David, Caroline, Jamie, Stephen, and families. We are so sorry to hear of Mary’s passing. The Donnelly family and Whitefriars Drive are synonymous with family, friends and community. Jim, you and Mary may have started as the youngest family on the street those many years ago, but you were the foundation of friendships and example for many.
We remember Mary for her civic duty and drive to help others. As an educator, while we never saw her direct contributions, we could see her commitment and gifts in everything she did. She was a beautiful person and half of a special couple our family knew for 56 years!
We were so very pleased and thankful that we were able to visit with you Jim and Mary a couple of years ago back home on Whitefriars.
We wish all of you our condolences and sincerest wishes as you remember and celebrate the life of a wonderful friend and neighbour of the Cameron family.
Colin, Joyce, Doug and Caryl (Brunet) Cameron

I have such fond memories of Mary when she was a VP at Bedford Park School. I will always remember the kindness that she showed toward me.
She definitely set the standard for dress code..a 'clothes horse'..Yes!! I loved the beautiful 'autumn' colours that she wore!
My condolences to the family.

Our families were back fence neighbors with the Donnellys for many years. The children played together and we even had an opening in our cedar hedge so they had easy access to both back yards. Mary was a respected educator and devoted her career to education. At our recent family Zoom meeting we recalled many anecdotes of events the two families shared. A great person, mother and professional. Our condolences to Jim and the family. Ron Raphael

So sorry to hear of Mary's passing. She was an intelligent, lively, woman with a great sense of humour. Back in the day Sheila and I had many good times with Mary and Jim.
Condolences to Jim and family.

Mary was a gracious lady. So kind and caring. Her infectious smile and keen wit brought laughter into the room.
She will be missed.
