Mary, originally from Wilmington, Delaware, moved with her family to Cecil County in 1976. Having worked 30 years in the computer field at Aberdeen Proving Grounds, she decided retirement was well deserved, if not short lived. Mary started with Northview in 2014 and left in 2017 to move South. She and her husband, Benny, moved back to our area in 2021 to be near family and because, well, she just missed us. They are awaiting their first grandson in the Spring of 2021.
