As we bid farewell to this cherished soul, solace is taken in the memories held dear — the laughter shared, the wisdom imparted, the moments of quiet reflection in their presence. Though Mary may no longer walk among us, her spirit lives on in the echoes of her kindness, the warmth of her embrace, and the light of her enduring love.
She was loved and cherished by many people including: her husband Curt Watkins; and her children, Courtney and Montessori.
Well into her photography career, Mary began to donate her services or substantially reduce fees to the agencies that helped the plights that she had first found so poignant in Camden. She enjoyed years of work and friendship with Crittenden Center, Women's Network, Women's Foundation, Rose Brooks, CCVI, Journey to Life and similar organizations.
