Mary Stimson McNamara died peacefully on Wednesday, Jan. 26, 2022, at her home in Savannah, GA. She died surrounded by her loving family.
Mary was born in Pasadena, CA. on April 20, 1950, the same birthdate as her mother, Nancy Rounds Stimson. She was the eldest of three children born to mother Nancy, and father Charles Ewing Stimson of Pasadena. Mary graduated from Westridge School in 1968, and received her BA degree from Wellesley College in 1972. She made her debut at The Valley Hunt Club in Pasadena in 1968.
In 1972 she married Read McNamara of New Milford, CT, and began a 50 year marriage which would see them live in both Latin America and Asia while raising a large family of five children. Overseas living did not prevent them from spending every summer at their beloved family cottage in Popham Beach, Maine. Mary carried her deep interest in gardening to every new location, foreign or domestic.
In addition to her husband Read of 50 years, Mary leaves behind five children, eight grandchildren, mother Nancy of Pasadena, and brother Henry of Altadena. A celebration of Mary's life will take place at a private family event in Maine in June.
