Mary was a delightful woman who cherished her time by herself. She loved old movies, comedies, solitaire and crossword puzzles which she was excellent at completing. She was a pleasure to spend time with and would share her views freely. I was fortunate to have spent special moments with her and she made me a better person. In my world, she will be greatly missed!
Mary, may you rest in peace!
Dear McCall family
Please accept the most sincere condolences from the staff of the Home Support Services of the West Neighbourhood House.
On behalf of all of us.

Leigh, Dougie, Cath & Iris, We were so very sorry to hear yesterday about Mary. She was the loveliest, warmest of people and we always enjoyed talking to her over all the tennis seasons. We’ve missed her up here at Southampton these past couple of summers. Bill & Steve Harper always enjoyed “the funny lady next door” as Bill kiddingly called Mary, who would poke her head out & laugh at them guffawing on the Harper lawn. So sorry for your loss. We understand.
I was sorry to read of your Mom's death in the Globe. I have memories of her as a warm and caring person and the fun she would have with the group of women in the "Ladies Morning Class" as they played tennis in Southampton. They all wanted to improve their game and to help one another -- and they always had a great time! I hope that the happy memories you have of your Mom will comfort you in your sadness.
Dear Doug and family,
I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your mom/grandmother. No matter the age, losing a parent is difficult. She sounded like an accomplished woman. Back when I was teaching tennis, I remember her walking across to get her newspaper every morning. I’m thinking of you during this difficult time.
