Mary was born in Ohio then her family moved to Pasco county Florida. She was working in a cigar factory she always felt something better was just around the corner. A nun told her about St. Elizabeth nursing school in Covington Kentucky. So in 1930 with only 50 dollars she took the train up to the school that would forever change her life. She graduated in 1933 she would meet her husband Frances (Frank) have two sons Daniel & David and had a job that would be a career filled with memories. She always had these sayings Once a Nurse Always a Nurse and Never forget the ones that came before you. When the school closed in 1968 she would be the last survivor of the class of 1933 and the oldest living graduate. She love to do anything to have fun she loved to play cards and always optimistic. She lived to be 100 and when she was 81 she had and survived breast cancer and would always tell women get a mammogram they save life's. There is the saying some people come into our life's and Quickly go Others stay for awhile and leave footprints on our hearts and we are never the same again. That was Mary for you once you meet her you never forgot her.
