Mary Grace (Gillner) Lamperski, of Reserve Township, Pennsylvania, passed away on June 13, 2020 at the age of 88. Born in Glenshaw, Pennsylvania, she was the second of three children of Henry and Marie Gillner. She was a devoted wife to George Lamperski of 52 years before his passing in 2004.
She is survived by her eight children, Curtis (the late Gloria), Christopher (Norma), Melaine Kachmar (Len), Lloyd (Stephanie), Ellyn Martin (the late James), Adele Rutherford (Ken), Brendan (Susan), and Blaine (Sarah), twenty-one grandchildren, and seventeen great-grandchildren. She is also survived by her sisters Florine Newcamp Winschel and Eileen Walker, along with nieces, nephews, grand-nieces, grand-nephews and other relatives, including George Nickel.
After they married, George and Mary Grace planted hundreds of pine trees along the hills surrounding their home. Their vision of nurturing plants led them to operate Pine-Dell Nursery for over 30 years. Their love of everything beautiful was instilled in their children.
Mary Grace was a kind and generous soul, devout Catholic, who dedicated her life to her family. She lived independently until shortly before her passing. She enjoyed being with her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and her extended family. A full life lived with “no regrets.”
