It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of our mother, Mary Anne (Stevens) Manglass, on Aug. 8, 2024.
Born in Benton, Maine, she was one of six children born to Ruth (Fish) Stevens and Caleb Stevens — Caleb, Dodie (Lois), Jean, Barbara and Polly — all of whom predeceased her.
After moving to Newburgh, she met and married the love of her life, Ralph Manglass. No matter where they lived before or after, they always called Cold Spring their home, spending most of their 70 years together there.
Along with working with her husband at the pharmacy, Mary enjoyed many hobbies, including photography. She has had many of her photos featured in local displays over the years and many made into postcards. She also enjoyed being part of many community groups, such as the garden club, quilting and president of the seniors’ group. She enjoyed spending time in Las Vegas with her husband and their many friends. Mary was a woman with a quick wit and a great sense of humor which she passed on to us all. When she smiled, she lit up the room!
Mary is survived by her loving husband, Ralph, and their three children, Ralph, Marie and Amy; their grandchildren, Kevin, Marykate, Caleb, Collin and Joel; and their great-grandchildren, Angelo and Lorenzo, all of whom will miss her dearly.
A Celebration of Life will be held in the Community Room at Archcare at Ferncliff in Rhinebeck, New York, on Sept. 1 from 1 to 4 p.m. All are welcome to come and share memories, visit with friends and celebrate Mary.
Funeral arrangements are under the direction of Clinton Funeral Home – Cold Spring
