Mary is survived by her beloved husband Rick, her stepmother, Lynda (Hutton) Leeson, stepbrothers; Dean Thompson (Betty), and Jeremy Leeson (Renee). She is predeceased by her parents Lorraine (Keyes) and Roy Leeson; parents-in-law Dorene & Harry Parkes; stepbrothers Bill Thompson, and John (Elvira) Thompson and “mother-of-the heart”, Barbara Wonch. She will be greatly missed by her “sister-of-the-heart” Cheryl Wonch (Steve). Mary will be missed and fondly remembered by many nieces, nephews and a large circle of friends and colleagues. The family would like to offer a sincere thank you to Dr. Campbell and all the staff of the Oncology Department at Orillia Soldiers’ Memorial Hospital for their compassion and excellent care. A celebration of Mary’s life will be held at the Simcoe Funeral Home, 38 James Street E., Orillia on Saturday, April 15th, 2023, from 1:00 – 3:00 p.m. Interment at Purdy's Cemetery at a later date.
