Passed away at South Lake Regional Hospital in Newmarket, on Wednesday, April 24, 2024. Mary Elizabeth Davies (nee. Parry) was born in Burk’s Falls, Ontario on 22 June 1937. She grew up on a small farm in Ansnorveldt on Holland Marsh. The house is still there. She was the oldest of seven all of whom had post-secondary education.
She went to Aurora High School by bicycle and never let her siblings and husband forget how many potatoes and beets she picked.
At 18, she went to Toronto General Hospital Nursing School, a profession she followed for 37 years, rising to Head Nurse in General Surgery and for 2 years in Ophthalmology.
People from as far afield as England and Crete say that she was a fine steak chef.
Mary loved her wine and wine tours and visited the great wineries of Europe and California. She liked a gin and tonic, whether it was Harry’s Bar in Venice or the Palace in Madrid.
Most of all, she loved River Cruises especially Portugal. She loved to watch the world float by. She was an intrepid road navigator. No road was too narrow, too steep.
She was the greatest wife a man ever had and I miss her very much.
