Obituary For Mary L. McHugh

Mary L. McHugh, 68, of Bloomingdale, OH went home to be with the Lord on Sunday, February 3, 2013 surrounded by her loving family.  She was a courageous and brave woman who fought the battle with breast cancer until the very end.

Mary was retired from Trinity Health Systems, where she worked in housekeeping for over 15 years.  During her fight here on earth she was cared for by some amazing individuals that deserve a special thanks:  the team at Teramana Cancer Center, including Donna Talbott, Melissa Marcino, all of the oncology nurses, Dr. Rahman, Dr. Hyland and Valley Hospice nurse Chalissa.  Friends may call at Dunlope-Shorac Funeral Home, 215 Fernwood Rd., Wintersville, OH on Wednesday, February 6, 2013 from 11a.m. until time of service 1p.m. with Rev.

    Although I never met Mary I can only imagine what a special lady she was since I've become good friends with her daughter Lesley and she's such a caring & sweet person. We work together at Dublin Methodist Hospital and she's a great nurse too! My thoughts and prayers are with you & your whole family now and in the days ahead.

    I am so glad that Mary,Brian,Lesley,Loretta,Linda and Laura made me feel like I was apart of their family. Mary made me realize that I should reconnect with my family. Mary always made it clear that family should always come first. I enjoyed making her laugh with my life experience stories and loved hearing about her trip to Old Navy and restaurants. Mary was right about old navy clothes not worth a dime after the first wash. Mary will be greatly missed. My condolences goes out to the family. God Bless!

    Mom I don't think you ever realized what a truely amazing woman you were. You impacted so many lives around you! My heart hurts beyond words but I know God needed you for some greater task in heaven. You always told us "I can't always be with you but God is ALWAYS with you"...those words bring me great comfort now. I LOVE YOU!

    Uncle Brian, Laura, Leslie, Linda, Loretta, grandsons and family, I am terribly sorry for your loss. Aunt Mary was an outstanding Christian woman who displayed a love for her family that is beyond words. She always gave the most wonderful advice and guidance. It was always a joy to visit her and Brian and the girls for an evening of coffee and fellowship. I think that's what I miss most. Aunt Mary, we love you and you will be forever missed. Until we meet again "See you later".

    Grandma I love you and I really miss you. I remember all the the things you taught me about God. I know you don't want me or anyone else to be sad but its so hard not to be. One day I hope to see you again up in heaven, I love you grandma.

  • 09/03/2024

    Brian,Leslie,Laura,Linda & Loretta, My thoughts and prayers go out to each one of you. Although Mary will be greatly missed here on Earth, the angels are rejoicing for her in Heaven. God has a greater plan for each of us and it is because of him that Mary and I have come full circle in our relationship. Trust in your faith and thank & praise God everyday for the wonderful wife and mother that he has blessed you with and know that you will see again one day. Love and prayers, Michele Pfouts

    Lesley and family, I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your mom. I know that there is a terrible void right now for you but hold on to the fact that she is suffering no more and that one great day you will be joined with her again. She will continue to watch down on you from heaven. I will be praying for all of you. Hold on tight to the memories for they will help you through.

    I am so sorry to hear that Aunt Mary has passed. I didn't see her very often. The last time I seen her my mother (her big sister) had passed on. What I remember the most about Aunt Mary was her strong faith, she was so sure and seemed so secure in that faith it was contagious. I have no doubt where Aunt Mary is but my heart is sad for the ones that are here without her and you will all be in my prayers

  • 09/03/2024

    Linda, I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your Mother. I remember working with her, she was a hard worker, kind to others and a true blessing to those who knew her. I know how much she means to you and that you'll all miss her very much. Scripture says in John 14: "do not let your hearts be troubled, Trust in God, trust also in me...." May God Bless each of you during this difficult time. In Prayer Diann

    Mary was a beautiful & caring soul. She was my strength thru my illness, always a kind & concerned word & always a hug to see me thru. Worrying more about others than herself. She will be sadly missed. A neighbor & good friend .

    Pat, Linda & Family, Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family while you cope with the loss of your mother. Find strength in each other and in remembering the wonderful times you have enjoyed with her throughout your life and the infinite impression she has made. --With deepest sympathy.

    Words cannot express what a very special person Mary was. This woman would take on the world for someone or something she believed in; she had a true faith in GOD, she was a wonderful,loving wife,mother and sister, she will be so deeply missed. I know she was all those things and more. All My Thoughts and Prayers: JoAnn

    Dear Family, Just in case I don't get there I want you to know that Mary holds a special place in my heart. At one point in my early years as Sunday School teacher she taught me to choose my words more carefully or better explain what I mean. That has been a lesson well learned and a blessing to me. Just this week as I sat in the Hospital with my ailing husband, and I wondered about her as I missed her smiling face doing her job, but always caring enough to say Hi and inquire of the needs in your life. When we got home Mon I learned of her home going and know that Heaven is rejoicing over one more come Home. Brother Lash sings a song "Some call it Heaven, I call it Home". Mary calls it home. The desire of her heart would be that one day she will be able to welcome each of you into her new home. To The Girls: I know from experience Mom's are hard to let go of. Brian, My heart goes out to you also, but you loss is different from any I've experience. You All are in my prayers! Carol Davis
