Mary A Leon

12/06/1946 - 02/18/2025

Mary went home with the Lord Jesus on February 18, 2025. She was a beloved mother, sister, aunt, and grandmother. Her kindness and support will forever be cherished by her family and friends. She touched many lives with her resilience, leaving a legacy of love and perseverance.

She was a woman of valor, a fighter who faced life’s challenges with unwavering strength and grace. She bravely endured years of heart issues, never allowing her struggles to dim her spirit or her love for life and those around her. For the last few years, she fought a battle with dementia, which gradually took her away, but she never gave up, saying, “I will do things my way and not be told what to do.” Typical Mary… a fighter till the end.

Mary’s memory will live on in the hearts of all who knew her. A celebration of her life will be held on March 8, 2025, in Miami at Christ Fellowship – West Kendall Campus, 9353 SW 152nd Avenue, Miami, FL 33196, at 10:00 am. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly asks for donations to the Humane Society of Manatee County (https://humanemanatee.org/).

Psalm 100:4-5

Mary, Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise; give thanks to Him and praise His name. For the Lord is good and His love endures forever; His faithfulness continues through all generations.

Rest in peace, Mom, knowing you were deeply loved and will never be forgotten.
