"Sissy" or "Aunt Mary" as she was lovingly known to her large family, stayed active her entire life even aerobics at 95! She cherished any time she could spend with family, loved playing dominos with friends and enjoyed a good glass of wine.
Mary was born and raised in Memphis, graduating from Southside High School. Before moving to Southaven, Mississippi she was a long time resident of Whitehaven in Memphis. Mary, a devout catholic, was a communicant of St. Paul Catholic Church. She retired from the 3M Company having worked there most of her life. After retirement she kept active volunteering at Methodist Hospital as a Pink Lady, ushering at the Orpheum Theater and most recently with her beloved Mother Cabrini Circle.
She is preceded in death by her parents William F. and Katherine Schneider Loeffel; her brothers Frank J., Albert A., Benjamin E., Charles J., Thomas E. and sister Louise.
Mary is survived by her niece Beverly Loeffel with whom she resided and nieces and nephews too numerous to count.
A visitation for Mary will be held Friday, April 8, 2022 from 10:30 AM to until her funeral mass begins at 11:30 AM all at St. Paul Catholic Church, 1425 E. Shelby Drive, Memphis, TN 38116. Burial will follow at Calvary Cemetery.
