commitment and excellence. Beyond her professional achievements, Mary was deeply

passionate about spending quality time with her family, educating herself and others

Her faith in God was a cornerstone of her life, guiding her through life and numerous

mission trips to Kenya, South Africa, Hong Kong, the Philippines, and Macau. These

journeys allowed her to touch countless lives, sharing her wisdom on health, finances,

and faith. As an ordained pastor with God’s Handmaidens and a missionary, Mary’s

knowing her.

son, Keith G. Simpson, and her beloved grandchildren, Ashley, Dianna, Patrick, and

Austin. Her legacy continues through her six great-grandchildren, along with extended

family and friends who were fortunate to share in her life's journey.
