Mary was proud of being one of ten children on the family farm in Garrett County. She loved to talk about what it was like on the farm and her job of milking the cows. Mary graduated from Southern Garrett County High School, Oakland, in 1953. She was a member of Circleville United Methodist Church, North Huntingdon, Pa., where Rev. Bishop was pastor from 1991-2000. Mary faithfully supported the congregations where she and her husband served. Following her husband's retirement in 2000, they moved to Mount Airy to be near family. Mary attended Ijamsville UMC during and following Rev. Bishop's time as part-time pastor. Mary loved spending her time outdoors taking care of her flowers and garden and watching everything grow. One of her favorites was her raspberries. She always loved watching birds, especially hummingbirds. A private graveside service and interment will be held at Howard Chapel UMC. Pastor Rodney Fry of Ijamsville UMC will officiate. The family requests contributions to be made to Susan G. Komen for the Cure, P.O.
