Mary Mullen, born in 1947 in Philadelphia to her parents Edward and Emily, sadly departed this world on October 16, 2026.

A beloved daughter, sister, wife, mother, and grandmother, Mary enjoyed sports, travel, and spending time with her family. A resident of Pennsylvania for 60 years, she was active with her local parish, the Lions' Club, softball teams, and bowling leagues. Her passion for bowling began as a freshman at Cardinal Doughtery High School where she was one of the first Freshman to letter in a Varsity sport. It was also in high school that she met her future husband, Michael. Following graduation, she initially pursued a career as an Administrative Assistant and then paused raise two daughters until she resumed her career in administration. Her last job was tailored to her passion for baseball, as it was a Customer Service Representative for an independent local uniform supply company that also supported the Philadelphia Phillies uniform needs. After moving to Cape Coral, Florida with her husband to be closer to her grandchildren in 2012, Mary focused on fishing, bird watching, gardening, and family, where she particularly enjoyed watching her two granddaughters grow up. She also took advantage of her free time following retirement to travel around the globe visiting family and friends.

Mary was preceded in death by her parents and her loving husband of 53 years, Michael. She is survived by her sister Barbara and two daughters Barbara (husband Chris) and Patricia (husband Rick, daughters Emily and Audrey).

A celebration of life is planned to be held on a future date in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
