Mary worked as a teacher in God’s Lake before getting married and starting a family. Once her youngest child started school, she worked for many years as an educational assistant in the Seven Oaks school division.

Mary was a loving and patient wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother. She lived a selfless life, dedicated to the care and well-being of her loved ones.

With respect to Mary’s wishes, there will be no formal service. Mary’s ashes will rest with her parents and sister at Holy Ghost Cemetery, with interment at a later date.

The family would like to thank the staff at The St. Boniface Emergency department and the compassionate nurses and aides in palliative care who kept her comfortable in her final hours.
