Mary, also known as "Granny", was known for her delicious meals she prepared along with the deserts she made. She was especially known for her Pecan Sandies, German chocolate cake, and Cherry-o-Cheese pies. Mary adored her family and cherished the time she spent with them. She was a true patriot as she was a devoted spouse of a decorated military veteran. She was extremely proud of her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren and always looked forward to speaking and visiting with them. Upon retiring, she traveled throughout the country in her RV with her beloved husband, Woody. To know Mary was to love her, to love her you had to truly know her.
