She also enjoyed quilting, playing cards, and square dancing. Mary belonged to the garden club for many years.

Mary passed away Sept. 13, 2012, at the age of 87 years, at the Legacy Lodge in Chariton after suffering a stroke a week earlier. She was preceded in death by her husband, Cob in 1975; son-in-law Lee Quick; and siblings: Herbert Konrad and Dorothy Konrad. She is survived by her children: Barb Quick, Kathy (Ron) Miller, Den (Mary) Bauer, Dave (Kathy) Bauer, Teresa (Rod) Harding; and Bill (Cindy) Bauer; 16 grandchildren; 18 great grandchildren; and three great great grandchildren. Also surviving is a sister, Ramona Bauer along with many nieces, nephews, and friends.
