Mary McClure Obituary

Mary McClure

May 6, 1936 - Sep 6, 2025

Mary Ann McClure, beloved mother, grandmother,

and great grandmother, passed away

peacefully on September 6, 2025 in Tulsa, OK.

She was born on May 6, 1936 in Kurthwood,

LA to parents Charles and Clarice McClure. Her

legacy lives on through her children: Dewitt

McClure of Langley, Ok, Benjamin McClure of

The Woodlands, TX, Jo Ann McClure-Huml of

Houston, TX, John McClure of Tulsa, Thomas

McClure of Richmond, VA, Melissa Frazier of

Tulsa, and Henry Powers of Tulsa, her grandchildren:

Courtney, Kelsey, Sasha, Christopher, Jeremiah,

Jonathan, Holly, Amanda, Thomas, Jesse,

Clarice and Olympia, and her great grandchildren:

Malena, Xavier, Aaliyah, Hunter, Isabella,

Travis, Thomas, Elijah, Luke, Gabriel, Addy

Kate, and Kaden. She joins in eternal rest her

daughter Mary Powers, her parents and her siblings:

Charles McClure, Kenneth McClure, and

Gwen Spaugh.

A strong graceful swimmer she found happiness

in and around all bodies of water. She

shared her love of swimming and adventure

with her children and grandchildren especially

during memorable spontaneous drives with

her grandchildren-joyfully calling them "let's

go get lost" trips-where the journey mattered

more than the destination and became family

legends. She will be remembered for her talent

in the kitchen, filling it with the delicious

aromas of Southern foods, her zest for life and

sense of playfulness that touched everyone she

met.

A memorial service to celebrate her life will

be held at a later date.
