Nothing was greater than the love between Mary and Lester. She assisted him with upholstery, sat by him waiting for his birds during pigeon races and assured for family time for their daughters.

She loved spending time in her yard gardening and mowing the lawn! She was an avid crocheter who donated many afghans to nursing homes, cancer centers and the mentally ill.
