Mary graduated from Victory High School Class of 1955. She was a lifelong resident of the North View section of Clarksburg and a lifelong member of St. James Catholic Church.  She dedicated her life to her husband, children, the countless children she lovingly babysat and then eventually her grandchildren, and great grandchildren. No baby could resist her tender embrace and captivating rendition of “Silent Night”, no matter the season, and hundreds of children curl up at night with her handmade Afghans she crocheted over many years. She loved sitting in her North View home of over 60 years to welcome frequent visitors or watch QVC with a fresh cup of coffee and hot pepperoni roll from D’Annunzio’s.  Her family will dearly miss her large family holiday gatherings, wise advice, thoughtful gifts, and occasional pranks.
