Gloversville, Fulton County, New York [8] |
- Mary B. Mabie, 86, of Marshville Rd. passed away Saturday evening at the Milford Whitinsville Regional Hospital in Milford, Massachusetts after a brief illness. She was the last surviving child of Silas Gifford and Sarah Ketchum Bowerman and was born in Canajoharie on November 2, 1917. Mrs. Mabie was employed as head cashier and bookkeeper for the Victory Market in Canajoharie and later for Beechnut Mfg., before she retired in 1972. She then went on to serve as a home health aide. Active in church and civic endeavors, she was Sunday school teacher and treasurer for over thirty years at the Marshville Evangelical Church.
A member of the Mapletown Grange for over seventy years, she served on the New York State and National Granges as lady assistant steward and chairperson of the State Women's Committee.

For thirty-five years she was a member and past matron of the Otsquago Chapter of the Order of the Eastern Star. Years ago, Mrs. Mabie was past president of the Canajoharie Parents and Teachers Association.
Her love for her family, birds, flowers and sewing and crocheting is how she will be remembered.
On January 2, 1937, she was united in marriage to David H. Mabie, a union that lasted for fifty years before he passed away in 1987. Her son, Karl Mabie, also predeceased her in 2002.
