Mary Greco Obituary
Mary Lee Greco passed away peacefully on December 27, 2025, leaving behind a legacy of love, creativity, and compassion that touched every life she encountered. Born on October 10, 1962, she lived a life defined by generosity, devotion to family, and an unwavering commitment to caring for the world around her.
Mary shared 32 beautiful years of marriage with her beloved husband, Leonardo Greco, whose partnership with her was filled with laughter, resilience, and deep affection. She is survived by her loving sisters, Patricia Cunningham and Carol "Doodle" Seitz, who will forever cherish her warmth, humor, and steadfast support. She is preceded in death by her father, Conway Shenk, her mother, Alda Sturgill, and her brother, Chester Ray Sturgill, with whom she is now reunited in peace.
Mary had a remarkable gift for nurturing all living things. Animals seemed to find their way to her-whether wandering into her yard or crossing her path-and she welcomed each one with open arms. Caring for them was not just a hobby; it was her calling.
A gifted seamstress and artist, Mary filled her world with color, texture, and beauty. Her hands created what her heart imagined, and her artistry lives on in the countless pieces she crafted with love. She was a true jill of all trades and master of many, able to turn her creativity and skill toward anything she set her mind to.
Mary's spirit, kindness, and boundless creativity will be deeply missed by all who knew her. Her legacy lives on in the lives she touched, the animals she cared for, and the beauty she brought into the world.
