Mary was born November 6, 1919 to Alexander and Eva (Schnell) Fritzler, in Minatare, NE. Mary grew up and attended school in the Minatare area. In 1938, she married Fred Schnell, who was killed at the battle of Iwo Jima. On June 4, 1946 she married Dave Martin, Jr. They lived in Alliance, NE and Gordon, NE before settling permanently in Yankton, SD in 1953. Mary worked as a waitress for many years while in Yankton - first at the Coney Island Café and later at Our Place, Too in South Yankton, NE. Her primary vocation, however, was always that of wife, mother, and grandmother and family was always the center of her life. She devoted her live to looking after her family and will be sorely missed by all of them. Mary loved flowers and delighted in gardening. In her prime, she won several Yard of the Month contests. She continued to garden well into her seventies and always had a number of plants and flowers growing inside her house as well.
