Mary Margaret Wing, a longtime resident of Byram, CT, passed away peacefully on Sunday, November 23 at Maplewood Assisted Living in Norwalk. She was 80 years old.
Born on December 30, 1944 in the Bronx, she was the middle child of Helen and James Moore. The family lived in City Island until they moved to Greenwich in 1955. There she attended St. Mary's High School and later switched to the Academy of Our Lady of Good Counsel in White Plains, where she graduated at the top of her class. After graduation, she planned to study nursing at D'Youville University in Buffalo, but instead started her family with her husband, Bill, and created a wonderful life with their 5 children in Greenwich. In those early days, she enjoyed boating, Sundays at Island Beach and picnics at Tod's Point with their Byram Vets family. In later years, spending time with her family, grandchildren and dear friends she gained through her church activities and Emmaus group brought her happiness.
Mary Margaret enjoyed many years working as an office administrator in Dr. Larkin's office in Greenwich, keeping her involved in the medical world. Her next venture brought her to JSJ Window Treatments, which appealed to another of her interests in home decorating. She loved finding treasures in antique stores and thrift shops and was very active on eBay in past years. She loved the "thrill of the hunt". Many of these finds are adorning her children's homes – each item coming with a story of its history and her joy of discovering it.
Mary Margaret will be remembered for her unquenchable thirst for knowledge and her desire to learn, improve and evolve in all aspects of her life – most importantly her faith. She was steadfast in her faith, firm in the knowledge that her Lord was in charge, which gave her great strength and courage to endure her health issues with quiet humility and acceptance.
She is survived by her children William (Ginger), Christopher (Michele), Brian (Jill), Meghan (Earl), grandchildren Patrick, Heather, Brendan, Kevin, Ryan, Chloe, Colin, Caroline, Madelyn, Courtney, Aidan and Liam. She is also survived by her brother Jim Moore and his wife Eleanor. She was predeceased by her husband of 60 years, William, her daughter Maureen and her sister Ellen Sexton.
Visitation will be held from 4 p.m.-7 p.m. on Monday, December 1 at Leo P. Gallagher & Son Funeral Home, 31 Arch Street, Greenwich, CT.
A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated at 10 a.m. on Tuesday, December 2 at St. Catherine of Siena Church, 4 Riverside Ave., Riverside, CT.
