She was born March 23, 1946, in Fayette County, West Virginia, the daughter of the late Ruby Pritt.
In her free time, Mary enjoyed quilting, word searches, gardening, crafts, and games, but her favorite activity was spending time with her family. At every family get-together, she could be found playing games with her family, particularly beating them at the game Trouble.
She was a devout member of the Grahn community, often volunteering at Grahn Elementary School, where she would chaperone school events that led to her joining in on the fun.
In addition to her mother, she was preceded in death by Shorty and Mary Roe, whom she thought of as her parents; one brother, David Roe; one sister, Gwenella Roe and one sister-in-law, Karoyln Roe.
Mary is survived by one brother, Jim (Susan) Roe of Grayson, Kentucky; two sisters-in-law, Jean Roe of Olive Hill, Kentucky, Cheryl Caudill of Morehead, Kentucky; special niece and nephew Dora (Wes) Steagall, Jimmy (Rhonda) Roe; three great-nieces Alannah and Hallie Steagall, and Gabby Roe and one great nephew Garrett Roe, along with many other family and friends who will greatly miss her.
Although Mary never had children herself, she played a significant role in raising her nieces and nephews, whom she loved dearly and thought of as her own.
