Mary was born in Wantagh LI, N.Y. to the late Willam R. Kaheny and Ruth M. Hyland Kaheny.
She is survived by her husband Scott Pechner and her two beloved sons, Matthew C. Pechner and Joseph W. Pechner.
She also leaves behind her sister, Elizabeth Kaheny - del Fierro (Raul) and a brother, Richard W. Kaheny (Kathy) and numerous nieces and nephews.
Mary was a graduate of St. William the Abbot School in Seaford, and Wantagh High School. After marriage, Mary and her husband Scott Pechner lived in Islandia, NY where they had their first child. They later relocated to Holly Springs, NC, where Mary had her second child.
Mary was a great lover of animals from childhood, and she worked as a veterinary technician for a period of time following high school. She also spent some years working in the insurance industry. She eventually worked for the Town of Cary in the Utility Customer Service Department for over 20 years, a job that she loved until retirement.
Mary was always fun-loving with a playful sense of humor, and a wonderful, empathetic friend to many.
We will celebrate the life of Mary on Saturday, January 29, at 11AM at Brown- Wynne Funeral Home in Cary.
While the family welcomes flowers, donations in memory of Mary can also be made to the SPCA of Wake County.
