Always we remember her triple to Chile to meet her Chillan family. Our condolences for her family
Terelu Bianchi 03 Aug 2025
I met Mary 55 years ago when she came to visit the Chilean branch of the Dunsmore family. At the time, I had just become the young bride of Patrick Dunsmore Mercer, son of Robert and Lucy. I recall Mary as a very lively, funny and sweet lady. She knew how to enjoy life.
My sincerest condolences to her children and extended family.
Magdalena 02 Aug 2025
Many years ago I was lucky enough to meet in Chile Mary, Sue and Jean! It was wonderful to discover we had family on the other side of the world, even that we haven't seeing each other again, the memories will remain always!
Rest in peace dear Mary, my thoughts are with your family xxxx

In Loving Tribute to Mary
Mary was a woman of quiet strength, steady presence, and a heart that made room for others. I’ll always hold dear the moments we shared in the kitchen, her generous spirit revealed through the gift of baking, and the way she let me into her Bon appétit secrets. It was more than cooking; it was her way of sharing love.
To Dan, Jean, Sue, and Heather, I send my heartfelt love to each of you. You’ve stood by one another with deep care, just as Mary would have wanted.
My children stand beside you today, there in person with open hearts, as we honour Mary and gently return her physical body to rest with Ted and Stu. I hope you feel the love that surrounds you, from those near and those holding you quietly from afar.
With love and respect

Aunty Mary
You were such an amazing, strong & caring lady.
Thankyou for coming to Australia all those times. The family would all get so excited knowing you & uncle were visiting us.
I was so in awe of the way you delivered facts about anything out of your head & I have never met a more efficient & organised woman in my life...although I expect you probably had to be when you married Uncle Teddy ????.
I will miss your annual Christmas letter, filling us in on all our beautiful cuzzies and all the social things you were involved in.
Rest in Peace aunty, you will be remembered and missed but reunited with loved ones who went before you.????
Love Linda & David Boardman & all our Families xxx
