Mary's parents were Mike and Connie Leyva. She had 10 siblings Lillie, Veta, Linda, Rosalie, Diane, Loddie and her brothers Sammy, Franky, Dennis and Mike. She lived in the city of Bloomington most of her life thats where she raised her two children Ruben and Theresa.  She was a strong, stubborn but kind woman. A good friend of my moms told me after she passed To know Mary is to love her.. It is so true you had to know her to see the special person she was. She cherished her grandkids Alex, Ceci, Angie, Bobo, Ethan, Lilllie.  Im thankful they got to meet and share memories with her.  Mary had many neices and nephews and loved them all especially Kayla.
