Mary Wellbank

1924 - 2015

1924 ~ 2015
Mary Wellbank, wonderful wife, mother, mother-in-law, grandmother, great grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend left this earth on January 11 to join her husband, Jack (John Philip Wellbank) in Heaven.
Mary was born to Frank and Addah Mae Reynolds in Illinois, lived in Arlington Heights, Illinois most of her life, and moved to Sandy, Utah several years ago.
Mary was married to Jack for nearly 50 years. Together, they raised four children.
Mary is survived by her children Mary Ann (Paul) Smietanka, John (Sarah) Wellbank, Steven (Eileen) Wellbank, and Melissa (Anthony) Gordon, her ten grandchildren, a great grandchild, loving brother, Jim Reynolds, and sister-in-law, Jackie Wellbank, and her many nieces and nephews. Mary was pre-deceased by her husband, brother Frank, sister Shirley, and her parents.
Mary was a gracious, caring person who radiated kindness and love to everyone she met. Her big brown eyes, sweet face, and lovely disposition will forever be remembered. She and Jack set an exceptional example for their children and their families, who miss them both dearly. Thank you Mother! You have done an outstanding job!
The family wishes to send special thanks and love to the staff at Solstice Hospice and Sunrise of Sandy for their warmth, care, and friendship.
A private family memorial service will be held at a later date. On-line condolences may be posted on the Tribute Wall at www.lakehillsmortuary.com.
