Mary Elizabeth Tildesley was born in Sarnia, Ontario, where she quickly developed a love of music, especially The Beatles. She spent many years working as a secretary for the Hamilton-Wentworth Catholic School Board, sharing her infectious laugh with students of all ages. Mary was a big fan of animals, caring for many pets over her lifetime, and loving animal visits at HCC in her later years. Mary’s favourite thing to do was to sit on a patio with a beer and listen to music or watch her beloved Toronto Blue Jays.
