Mary was a very hard worker all her life. Her great joy was cooking up tremendous pots of her famous Hungarian cooking and sharing it with all her neighbours and family. Throughout her life, she travelled extensively, was a voracious reader and lived her life to the fullest. She brightened the lives of all that knew her with her tremendous wit, kindness, her famous sayings and sense of humour. She will be greatly missed. Upon Mary’s request, there will be a family Celebration of Life in the spring. A sincere appreciation is extended to Dr. Strader and the tremendous, caring, loving staff at the Bonnechere Manor. The visit from Father Brennan in her final days meant so much. In memory of Mary, donations to the Bonnechere Manor Foundation would be appreciated.
