Mary was married to Arlie Everett "Poppy" New on 9-10-1939 & he died on 3-20-1997 at Martinsville Hospital.

Harriett St in Martinsville since the early '50s. She was a homemaker with a heart of gold, loved to cook & have family gatherings. She and Arlie never missed a day's work at their business. They were well-liked in the town. They saved 26,000.00 dollars to buy a Motor home to travel in & they drove it to California a couple of times to visit their son Richard.
