Publish in a newspaper
Mary was the daughter of the late, Kenneth and Esther Andrus of Pine City. She was predeceased by her parents and brother, Richard Andrus of Florida. She is survived by her loving husband of 58 years, Donald; sons, Mark (Danielle) of Elmira and Bruce (Lisa) of Dayton, Ohio; grandchildren, Kayla (Zack) Hennis of Ohio; Brent Paterson of Painted Post; Caitlin Paterson of Ithaca; and Emily Paterson of Candor; great grandchildren, Javian, Neveah and Gianna of Ithaca; brother, Kenneth Andrus of Elmira; and John Andrus of Missouri. She also had a special spot in her heart for her nieces, Anna Riley, Amber Cook, Sally Sharp and nephew, Scott Andrus. Mary loved cruising in our antique car and meeting with the good friends of the Chemung Valley Street Rods Car Club. Her passions were her children, grandchildren, great grandchildren and her flower beds. A celebration of her life will be held at the convenience of the family. Please feel free to donate to a charity of your choice in Mary's name.
