Mary lived in Breslau all her life and was a faithful member of her church. She enjoyed ringette and curling, as well as coffee with the Breslau Morning Walkers. She was a popular vendor for many years at the Kitchener Market, and her unique plastic creations are enjoyed around the world. A memorial service to remember Mary will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Thursday, July 23rd at the Breslau Evangelical Missionary Church, 102 Woolwich Street in Breslau. For those that wish, a casual visitation will be held at Mary's, 19 Shields Street, Breslau between 5:00 and 7:00 p.m. that day (July 23). As an expression of sympathy consider a donation to the church, or to Hospice Wellington in Guelph where Mary received dignified and loving care.
