For most of her professional life she was active in the production side of publishing, where she was able to employ her considerable artistic skills. Her private artwork demonstrated an impressive skill and seriousness, but she was also adept at deploying a lightsome use of color and design with flashes of humor.
Though shy by nature, Mary did not lack for friends. She was blessed by true and dear friends from childhood on, including “The Capitol Avenue Gang” – you know who you are, the Panera Group, which started out in the Hotel Fort Des Moines, and her abiding connection to her friends in faith, nor should we omit The Order of the Eastern Star.
