Dearly loved wife of the late Gordon, much loved mother of Paula and Mark Lipman, David and Sara Jack. Dearly loved Gran of Caleb, and Noah Lipman, Grace, Toby, and Eden Jack. Mary was the last of nine beloved Shepherd siblings and with her passing a generation comes to its close. Loved sister-in-law of Gordon's brothers and wives. Mary passed peacefully in her sleep with family by her side. Thank you to the wonderful staff of Rowena Jackson for their care of Mary over the past nine years.
