Mary did not have formal training in the arts, but she taught herself many things, learning much about the history of artistic pieces and the artists who created them. She would often amaze people with her knowledge of florals, paintings and operas. Before joining All Saints Parish a few years ago, she was a long-time member of St. John the Evangelist in Deer Park.
