Mary Kathlenne Lessard's Obituary
Mary Kathleen Chizmar Lessard, 92, of Lumberton, died September 3, 2011 at Southeastern Hospice House in Lumberton.
A memorial mass will be held 6:00 PM, Friday, September 9, 2011 at St. Francis de Sales Catholic Church with Father Thomas Malloy of St. Ann Catholic Church of Fayetteville officiating.
She was born in Madison, Maine on June 24, 1919 to the late John and Anne Schamaga Chizmar. After her marriage to Victor Lessard they resided in Skowhegan, Maine until 1976. They moved to Lumberton and attended St. Francis de Sales Catholic Church. Mrs. Lessard was the bookkeeper for the three grocery stores and laundromat that she and her husband owned and operated. Since 1986 she worked with her daughter and son-in-law at Mr. P??s Skateworld where she was lovingly known as Grammie.
Mary was a dedicated, loving wife, mother and grandmother. She enjoyed cooking for her family and gathering them all around her. She was a gentle, quiet woman but she was determined to help anyone who needed her. She was a hard worker who never complained, but had a quick smile and tender touch. She will be missed by so many that loved and admired her strength and devotion to God and her family.
She was preceded in death by her parents, two brothers, two sisters and a great-grandchild. Her husband preceded her in death only fifty days before on July 14, 2011. They would have celebrated their 75th wedding anniversary on September 21, 2011. They will be laid to rest in Calvary Cemetery in Skowhegan, Maine on their anniversary.
Mrs. Lessard is survived by her sons, Victor Lessard and wife Mary of Hickory, Paul Lessard and wife Maureen, Francis Lessard and wife Pat, all of Skowhegan, Maine; daughters, Pauline Turcotte and husband Phil of Cedar Point and Mary Pittman and husband Danny of Lumberton; 17 grandchildren; 31 great-grandchildren; one great-great-grandchild; and two sisters, Betty and Ellen.
