Mary last worked for American Shetland Pony Club in Morton as Accounting/Registry Clerk. She previously had worked as an accounts payable coordinator for Bergner’s in Peoria for over 20 years. Mary was a member of Northminster Presbyterian Church and volunteered her time and talent providing weekly accounting support. She also enjoyed assisting with the Church’s annual Rummage Sale.
Mary enjoyed reading and grooming her home and yard. She shared her love with her food. Nothing made her happier then planning a southern-style meal for a gathering of family and friends. Most of all she loved her family and instilled in her children strong values and work-ethic that served them well. Mary will be dearly missed and forever in our hearts.
