      She resided in Granbury for about 35 years. She has been a member of First Baptist Church for all that time, taught Sunday School there and was a member of the Willing Workers class at the time of her transition to a greater life with her Lord.
      Mary was active in the Rockettes, a club formed in Rock Harbor where she lived. They did various projects which included her seamstress skills by dressing dolls and making stockings at Christmas time. The group is still active and since she couldnt go, brought her lunch from their last meeting recently. They enjoyed a secret chuckle when being hostess at the Opera in their formal wear by people asking them were you really in the Rockettes? What memories you must have.
      A memorial service was held at First Baptist Church in Granbury at 3 p.m. on Sunday, Sept.14 with senior pastor Scott Pace officiating.
      A service was held at 5 p.m. Monday, Sept. 15 at Shelby Chapel Cemetery Pavilion with burial following in Shelby Chapel.
