Mary was a graduate of Woburn High School and worked at Atlantic Gelatin for a period of time before she met her soon to be husband Ralph in 1955. Together they raised their six children here in Woburn. Mary was devoted to her family and her faith. She was very active for many years in the church and activities of St. Anthony Parish in North Woburn. She was a wonderful baker and her chocolate chip cookies were legendary in the neighborhood. Together, Mary and Ralph loved to square dance and spent their weekends with friends dancing with the Baldwin Apple Squares.
