The daughter of Monica Jones and Joseph Cannon, Mary was born and raised in Liverpool, England. The youngest of 14 she is survived by her sister Laura and her brothers Vincent, Gerald and James.
When Mary was 19 she came to NY by boat from Liverpool. In 1962 she met and married Jack Connolly (deceased) and in 1968 they moved to Croton-on-Hudson where they raised four children.

She was a loving mother and grandmother to her children Laurie, Sean (Ursula), Jackie (John), and Cathy (Jimmy) and her six grandchildren, Jack, Addison, Ben, Kate, Dillon, and Luke.
Mary's life centered around her family, and in her retired years, her grandchildren who were her greatest joy. She had a dynamic personality and was full of life until the end. She will be greatly missed. We love you Mom.
