Mary Bennett, passed away on June 11th, in Malta, NY, after a brief struggle with lymphoma.
Born on September 14, 1927 in Lowell, MA to George L. and Helen (Shanks) Doole, she graduated from Lowell High School in 1945. She attended Boston University for one year and became a jewelry buyer for The Bon Marche' in Lowell. It was there, in 1946, that she met her husband, Louis H. Amiot, and moved to Tewksbury, where she spent most of her adult life.
Mary and Louis had a loving marriage until his untimely death in 1965. In 1983, she married Ralph R. Bennett, with whom she shared thirty-two happy years until his death in 2015.
Mary worked in the Tewksbury Tax Collector's office for many years, retiring in 1984. During her retirement, she volunteered in the gift shop at Lowell General Hospital.
Mary was a life-long member of the Eliot Presbyterian Church, where she served as an elder, the treasurer of the Women's Association, and leader of the adult Sunday school class. Mary was a woman of deep faith, who appreciated the blessings of family and friends, and always approached the adversities of life with the knowledge that God would give her the strength to meet any challenge.
Mary was an excellent seamstress, a skill she learned from her mother. Her daughters remember the stylish Easter outfits she made for them each year. She also liked to bake. Friends and family loved her delicious gifts of Scottish shortbread, homemade apple jelly, and cracker candy.
She is survived by her daughters, Diane (Glenn) Burkland of West Chester, PA, and Margaret (Peter) Jasinski of Queensbury, NY; one stepson, John P. (Elaine) Bennett of Tewksbury; and one stepdaughter, Sarah (Steven) Depoian of Chelmsford. One other stepdaughter, Susan J. Bennett, predeceased her. Also left behind to cherish her memory are eleven grandchildren, ten great-grandchildren, and many nieces and nephews.
Mary was predeceased by her brothers, George, John, and Jesse Doole, and her sisters, Anna (Doole) Mansfield and Ellen (Doole) Blackwell.
