She passed peacefully in her sleep with her loved ones at her bedside. Mary was born on July 20th 1937 in Red Bay, Alabama to Arvin and Bertha Mae Mink. She and her family moved to northern Illinois where she met and married the love of her life on August 15th 1953, Michael Camellino. They owned a small gas station in Rondout, Illinois where Mary also ran an antique store. They were married for 51 years and had three children; Debra, Michael, and Rick. Antiques, western movies and the Chicago Cubs were some of her passions but she loved being "Grandma" most of all. She was kind and gentle to everyone and the grace and elegance she possessed could never be taught or forgotten. Mary is survived by her daughter, Debra Patterson, son, Rick, grandchildren, Mark White and Tracie Imbasciani, great-grandchildren, Dominic and Payton Imbasciani and Lincoln White, and her companion for 10 years Gary Oliver. Her family will be hosting a gathering at her home on Friday, November 11th from 6-8pm to share wonderful memories of such a unique and special woman. Go CUBS Gram, tell Grandpa all about it...
