Mary grew up in Roswell, NM where she would later meet and marry the love of her life JT Rose. Mary and JT had six children that were her entire world. She loved family gatherings, spending time with friends, playing games and cooking. She always had a big, beautiful, and welcoming smile for anyone entering her door. Although you may find yourself playing games, eating her famous chocolate pies, and visiting for hours on end, this was our mom. Mary was a true homemaker in every sense of the word. She was treasured by her family. The greatest gift to us was her dedication and love for her family. She was absolutely adored by everyone who knew her. Mary was the most wonderful and loving wife, mother and Granny in the world and will be greatly missed by all.
