Mary Louise McMaster

 April 28, 1921 - November 20, 2024

Mary Louise McMaster passed away on November 20, 2024 at the age of 103 after a brief illness. Mary graduated from Providence High School in Randolph County and Gate City Secretarial School in Greensboro. She was a bookkeeper for Asheboro Hosiery Mill and retired in 1986. Mary was an active member of First United Methodist Church. She was an active participant in the Blanche McGlowan Sunday School Class, Chancel choir, and United Methodist Women. Mary was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and great grandmother. 

Her faith in the Lord was her foundation. Throughout her life's journey she was steady and did not waver. She led by example and was wise, strong and courageous. Through her heart, which was full of kindness, she always shared the goodness of God with her family and friends. 

Mary will be remembered by many as one who personified a member of the "Greatest Generation" with unmatched work ethic and resilience. Each day was welcomed with a smile. 

Mary was predeceased by her husband, the late Daniel Green McMaster. Surviving are her three daughters, Danielle Mooney (Peter), Jean Montgomery, and Janet Jobson. She was blessed with 9 grandchildren and 14 great grandchildren. 

Mary's celebration of life will be held at 2:00 pm on Sunday, November 24, 2024 at Pugh Funeral Home, 437 Sunset Avenue in Asheboro. In lieu of flowers, donations can be gifted to Trellis Supportive Hospice Care of Winston-Salem.
