Mary Elizabeth Gregory

Mary graduated from North Cobb High School in 2001, she then attended Kennesaw State University and was leaning towards pursuing a Journalism degree. Subsequently, she threw herself into learning everything possible about the culinary arts due to her love of baking.

Mary will be remembered by friends and family for her warm, outgoing personality and adventurous spirit. Mary was a creative, colorful, and caring friend to all. She enjoyed spending time with friends playing board games, at trivia nights, concerts, conventions, tea parties, and the occasional camping and kayaking road trip. She will be fondly remembered for her thoughtfulness, especially when it came to things like making special treats for birthdays and holidays. She put a lot of thought, care, and effort into what would make people happy.

Mary was preceded in death by her son Ethan in 2008. She is survived by her husband Jonathan Gregory, her son Ronan, her parents Roy and Georgia Lee, her brother Joshua Lee, her father and mother-in-law John and JoAnn Gregory, her Uncles Russ Sorrow, James Ware, and Tom Sorrow, and her Great Aunt Elaine S. Patrick.
