The simplest pleasures in life brought great joy to Mary. Her hobbies and interests included her family, Atlantic City, horse racing, dancing and bus trips to Kings Plaza Mall for some shopping.

 

Mary’s greatest passion of all was Nursing, she dedicated 43 years to her nursing career.

Everyone at the hospital knew Mary as Ms. Boddey. Mary has touched so many people in her professional and personal life with her big heart, she will be greatly missed.
