Mary Stacey Obituary

STACEY, Mary E. (Rooney) Died in Clearwater, Florida at age 87 after an acute illness. She was born in Norwood MA and lived for many years in the Point of Pines neighborhood of Revere where she raised her children. Mary moved to Clearwater more than 20 years ago after the death of her husband, George Stacey. Mary loved to cook, travel, discuss politics, and read anything and everything related to Finance. Each summer she looked forward to an extended vacation visiting her family in Massachusetts and New Hampshire and spending time on Cape Cod. Mary dealt with her many chronic health issues with great strength and courage and was an inspiration to all who had the pleasure to know her. Mary leaves her two daughters, three step-daughters, many grandchildren and great-grandchildren and her sisters, brothers, nieces and nephews. The family would also like to thank the wonderful nurses, doctors, and entire staff of Morton Plant Hospital in Clearwater for their support and care that allowed Mary to die peacefully surrounded by family in her last days. No local services will be held.
