Mary K. Porter, age 76, passed away on November 27, 2025. She was born on August 24, 1949, to the late Mary Therese and Harold J. Porter, Jr. She grew up surrounded by the love of her family and carried that devotion throughout her life.

Mary is survived by her cherished siblings Sharon Boardman, John (Christine) Porter, and Therese Porter. She was preceded in death by her siblings, Patsy, Hal, Jimmy, and Tom. She was a proud and loving aunt and great aunt to many.

Mary was a devoted nurse and caretaker to many. Her life was defined by her kindness, her deep sense of family, and her ability to bring joy to those around her. She will be remembered for her gentle spirit, her generosity, and the countless ways she enriched the lives of those fortunate enough to know her.

Visitation is Saturday, December 6, 2025, from 11:30 AM – 2:00 PM at Sunset Memorial Chapel, 6245 Columbia Road, North Olmsted, OH 44070, where her funeral service will follow at 2:00 PM.
