Obituary of Mary ROCKWELL

May 24, 1930 - Montreal, Quebec
June 19, 2020 – Calgary, Alberta

After recently celebrating her 90th birthday, Mary passed away on Friday, June 19, 2020.  

She leaves behind her daughter Lori Spada, son-in-law Mario Spada, granddaughter Stephany Spada, cousin Margaret Baxter, and many other extended family members. 

Mary was born and grew up in Montreal and is predeceased by her parents Raymond and Madeline Bennett, grandson Philip Spada, brother Harold Bennett, and sister Monica Bennett.  Mary moved to Calgary in 1997 after her daughter and family were transferred. She quickly formed wonderful friendships, learned to play bridge, and enjoyed socializing at a number of activities within the community. 

Her quick wit, effervescent personality, and welcoming smile will be missed by all.

A private family service will be held at a later date.
