She attended schools in Elk Rapids and was part of the Class of ’83. She loved her classmates very much and spoke of them often “by name” throughout the rest of her life. If you were lucky enough to know Mary, you will likely remember her most for her warm, affectionate smile.
She is preceded in death by her parents, John and Mary, as well as four brothers, William, Michael, Patrick and Kevin. She is survived by brothers and sisters, John, Thomas, Teresa, Coleen, Harriet, Margaret, David, Denisa and Lawrence, along with many nieces and nephews.
Visitation will be on Friday, February 21 from 5 pm to 9 pm and will continue on Saturday, February 22 at 9 am with a funeral service beginning at 11 am where friends of Mary Catherine are encouraged to attend and share stories and memories with her family. Visitation and services will be hosted by Covell Funeral Home, 312 Pine Street in Elk Rapids. In lieu of flowers, please make donations in Mary Catherine’s memory to Munson Hospice House.
