Though never a player, Mary loved to watch golf, in person or on TV. Her favorite players of all time were Jack Nicholas and Arnold Palmer. Growing up in Augusta afforded her several opportunities to enjoy attending the Masters Tournament, always having a grand time. Mary was an independent, outgoing woman, a warm loving mother, the life of the party, friend to many, dedicated to her family and a loving wife. She was an incredible cook with many published Southern recipes, preparing such notable dishes as her crispy iron skillet fried chicken, pineapple upside down cake, black-eyed peas and stewed sweet tomatoes, her notorious holiday green Jell-O and without a doubt the most tasty Georgia pecan pie ever created in a kitchen. Though she lived the last half of her full life in Central Florida, she was never far from her deep roots to family in Augusta. Her final wish was to be laid to rest back home and thus the family will hold an intimate ceremony to celebrate Mary's life on earth and transition to eternal life with God the Father. A funeral mass will be held on Friday, February 25, 2011, 11:00 a.m. at St. Mary on the Hill Catholic Church with interment to follow at Westover Cemetery.
