She was born in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia to the late John H and Ada A McKay Wilson. The family moved to Charlestown, MA when Mary was young, where she grew up. A proud veteran of World War II, Mary served in the US Navy, stationed in Washington, DC.
Following her marriage, she and her husband lived in Cambridge, MA for many years, where they raised their family and eight years ago she took up residence in Woburn, MA to be near her daughter.

She was the devoted mother of Charlene Venturini of Oldsmar, FL, Gina Venturini Kennedy and her husband Robert Kennedy of Woburn.
