Prior to her retirement Mary purchased the empty lot next to Stella and built the house of her dreams for her and her older sister Rita. She was a faith filled person who when she retired at seventy-two, was looking forward to continuing to do God's work as she lived her life in the comfort of her home.

She recognizes the beginning signs of Alzheimer disease and has an attorney establish an irrevocable living trust that states her wish to remain I her home with care, if feasible.
