She once sewed 22 dresses for less fortunate children for Easter, lovingly stitched by hand, adding gloves and socks so they would have the perfect Easter outfit. Mary was preceded in death by her parents, husband and brother, James H. Wyandt. She will always be loved and missed by her children and their spouses, Catherine A. McLeod, Tampa, FL, Ladonna (Hector) Paedae-Rodriguez and William H. (Maggie) Paedae, all of Sebring; brother, Stanley (Barbara) Wyandt, Seffner, FL; sisters-in-law, Lazette Paedae, Brooksville, F; Loretta Wyandt, Oldsmar, FL, Juanita, Tampa and Delores Pierce, GA; grandchildren, Warren McLeod, Jose A.
