Mary’s seamstress skills created many stunning styles from an Azalea Trail dress to recital and Mardi Gras costumes. She loved to knit creating many special items for her family. Later in life, Mary began a career in the retail business with Hammels’s in downtown Mobile, and later with the lingerie department in Dillard’s at Bel Air Mall.
