They lived in El Paso for 7 years, then relocated to Los Angeles, California with their 2 daughters, Debbie and Patsy. Family was everything to both of them. Upon meeting Mary, people fell in love with her loving and nurturing ways. She was everyone's "Mom". She was a great friend to all. One thing about Mary, she LOVED her sports. She was the biggest Raider fan and boxing fan around. She knew more about sports than anyone. However, Her biggest passion and joy was her family. There's nothing she wouldn't do for them. She also took pride in her job, where she was both loyal and hard working. Traits she and her husband, Robert instilled in their daughters and Granddaughters. She adored her 2 Granddaughters, Kassandra and Isabella. Every Sunday Kassandra and Isabella would be spent watching Mary's favorite show, "Walking Dead". These are the things that made her unique and a treasure to everyone who knew her. These are the things that we will remember forever.
