She enjoyed travelling around the world where she enjoyed sight seeing and skiing. Mary was an avid gardener and a longtime member of the Hamilton Zonta Club II. She will be deeply missed by her many friends that she made over the years. Mary was a very generous person with a big heart. Throughout her life she donated to many organizations in her community. She helped sponsor a family who lived in Kosovo and brought them to Canada to help them build a better life.
