So sorry for your loss. Mary was a true lady. She was responsible for me becoming interested in poetry when she gave as a child "A Child's Garden of Verses'. A tradition I have continued to pay forward through the years. May she be embraced by Thom, Aunt Vera, Uncle Jim and Jimo and may they share some Irish laughter!

Mary was a witty, savvy, inspirational, motivational individual who loved her family and cared deeply for those with whom she served.. She always enriched our experiences with great stories of adventures from the present and the past. She was a very fine lady with whom I was grateful to have known.
her enthusiasm for doing good was inspiring and quick and kind sense of humor added spice to our current events meetings. i am happy to have known her. and will miss her if we ever get to watch movies at the center again. pam bruno
Mary and Tom (my colleague at Merrimack) were friends who were intelligent, welcoming and caring. They shared a passion for social justice and for clear thinking. After Tom's passing, Mary carried on with great spirit and humor. Her home was always open for a visit and the aroma of fresh home-made donuts were irresistible.
Although I haven't seen her in recent years, I remember her fondly and offer my condolences to the Levitt children.

A great person. Someone I have known for many years. I remember the YD fishing trips out of Plum Island and was with her on two YD Vet trips to Italy (my wife was one of her "smoking pals" on both trips. Shocked at her passing, as I saw her recently at COL "Butch" Welch's funeral. My wife and I are deeply saddened. Our sympathies to Mary's family.

An end of an era the passing of the fabulous Mary Leavitt who always made me laugh. She had the best sense of humor and could always spot a phony. She is part of our Academy Rd. history and will always remain in our hearts.
Love to all you Leavitt kids.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Although I didn't know her well, she was such a wonderful person to volunteer with. She loved to talk while prepping the meal. May she rest in peace.
