Mary Frances "Muff" Mackey
1929 - 2019

Mackey, Mary Frances (Muff)
Muff Mackey died June 13, 2019 after a long battle with Alzheimer's. Born Mary Frances Warfield to Louise (McKee) and Paul E. Warfield on May 8, 1929 in Monmouth, IL where she spent most of her childhood.


She is predeceased by her husband, Jack, of 42 years, and survived by her children, son Doug and his wife Jody, and daughter Lynne. Family and friends remember her gift of kindness as a friend, mother, and wife. She always brought a creative spirit to her many talents, was always encouraging her children to follow their dreams, and supportive of Dad in his business and sharing in laughter for their life together.

Muff was nothing if not passionate about her interests. She cared deeply about the environment, both locally and globally. (How many hillsides of native wildflowers in Genesee are in bloom because of her efforts?) She was actively involved in Women's Health and reproductive rights issues, establishing recycling in communities, and with the floral committee in her church. She loved the outdoors: hiking, xc-skiing, fly-fishing, camping and could tell you the names of all the wildflowers on your path, along with their Latin version.

Aside from her family, perhaps, her greatest love was for Baseball. She always rooted for her home National League team. She is known to have converted several skeptical sport critics into fans of the game.

The Celebration of Life for Muff Mackey is being held at 11 am on Saturday, September 14, 2019 at the First Plymouth Congregational Church, 3501 S Colorado Blvd, Englewood, CO 80113.

NO FLOWERS PLEASE If you would like to make an in-memorial gift in honor of Muff, please consider the Alzheimer's Association or Planned Parenthood.
