Mary A. Moran peacefully departed this world on January 18th, 2024, surrounded by her loving family at New Hanover House, with the compassionate support of Gentiva Hospice in Wilmington, NC.
Born on January 17th, 1927, in Waukegan, Illinois, Mary lived a remarkable life spanning 97 years. On March 9, 1957, she married David J. Moran, a US Naval Veteran, in Watertown, New York. Their life's journey led them through many locations, including Panama, Rhode Island, North Chicago, IL; Watertown, NY; Lake Placid, NY; and Newark, NY. Unfortunately, on April 12th, 1980, David passed away at the age of 49, his health bearing the impact of his dedicated service to his country during the Vietnam/Korean Wars. After David's passing, Mary devoted her time to her children, finding solace in the Carolinas.
In her career, Mary devoted herself to roles in customer service, health care and in education as well as volunteering with community services. However, her deepest source of pride came from being a devoted homemaker for her cherished family.
Mary is survived by her three sons: Thomas Moran (Sue Boyce) of Wilmington, NC; John Moran (Jennifer) of Portland, OR; David Moran (Kara) of Massapequa Park, NY; and her daughter, Carole Hunt of Orangeburg, SC.
A source of immense pride for Mary was her family, which includes eight grandchildren: Rachel, David, Alex, Emily, Eloise, Emma, Bridgette and Jeremiah, as well as seven great-grandchildren and two great-great-grandchildren.
In honoring Mary's memory, there will be no calling hours. A burial service will be held at11:30 am Monday, August 12, 2024, at Calvary Cemetery Watertown NY. The family welcomes all those who knew and loved Mary to join them in celebrating her life and bidding her a fond farewell.
