Mary Estelle McKenny

May 13, 1919- March 21, 2021

Mary Estelle McKenny of Lower Marlboro, MD passed away on March 21, 2021. She was born in St. Mary’s County on May 13, 1919 to Valley and Blanche Greenwell of Hollywood, MD. She attended St. John’s Catholic School, Hollywood Elementary and Great Mills High School. She met her husband to be in March of 1937 and they were married October 12, 1938. Mary worked on the family tobacco farm with her husband Hundley. She worked in the fields and tobacco stripping room (which she hated). She also worked as a waitress at the Rod-n-Reel for 22 years. Mary enjoyed crocheting, especially making afghans, and watching Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy.

Mary was preceded by her parents Valley and Blanche Greenwell, husband Hundley McKenny, and her siblings Chester Greenwell, Ignatius Greenwell, James Elmer Greenwell, Evelyn Muzzuco, Margaret Wilson, and Kenneth Greenwell. She is is survived by her children James McKenny (Patti), Maybelle Tippett, Jeanne Norris, and Ron McKenny (Gail). She was preceded in death by three sons in law, Don Ferguson, Bill Norris and Clarence Tippett. She is survived by grandchildren Joey McKenny (Kelly), Bo McKenny (Linda), Tammy McCarroll (Marty), Donny Ferguson (Estelle), Jan Peregoy (Kevin), Shelley Ferguson, and Cody McKenny. She was preceded in death by a granddaughter Rhonda Foster. She is also survived by ten great-grandchildren, eight great-great grandchildren and numerous nieces and nephews, and by her sisters Agnes Poe of Valley Lee and Dorothy Sickle of Leonardtown.

Mary loved her family and enjoyed being with them always. Her family would deeply appreciate if expressions of sympathy in her memory be made to Huntingtown Volunteer Fire Department or Calvert Hospice.

    She was a grand lady and told you exactly how it was. She liked going to Cracker Barrel for meat loaf and cleaned her
    plate. She was always a joy to be with and will certainly be missed by everyone, especially her caring family.

    So very sorry to learn this. I knew Mary and Hundley through the Order of the Eastern Star – Prince Frederick Chapter #104. Even after all the years (since Prince Frederick Chapter had closed), Mary called me every year around the Christmas holidays after she received my Christmas cards. We had a great time remembering “the good old days” and tried to bring each other up to date on folks we jointly knew. Mary was a wonderful lady and friend, whom I will miss talking with each year.
