Obituary of Mary Kiss

KISS, Mary (Nee Koleszar)

September 8, 1926 - March 10, 2021

Passed away peacefully at the age of 94 years. Loving wife of the Late Julius (1995). Beloved Mother of Theresa (John) Tracey, Jim (Gail) Kiss, and Bob (Kathy) Kiss. Cherished Grandma of Kristine (Shawn) Halpin, Jeffrey (Roopa) Tracey, Scott (Lyndsay) Tracey, Jordan Kiss, and Amber Howe. Adored Great-Grandma of Marcus, Jake, Jayden, Lily, Jessa, Liam, Dillon, and Nolan. Mom and Dad left their hometown of Vegardo Hungary in 1949 to start a new life here in Canada. Through their energy, hard work, and perseverance, they managed to create a wonderful life for their family. Mom was an amazing cook. She loved to prepare traditional Hungarian meals and share them with friends and family.  She enjoyed being around others and her door was always open. Her grandchildren had a special place in her heart. Mom found a new level of independence at the age of 64 when she learned to drive. She took pride in being able to drive around town to shop, visit friends, attend church, or play bingo. Mom was a caring, loving person with a warm infectious smile and a deep Faith in God. She will be missed. A Special Thank-You to the wonderful staff at Extendicare Southwood Lakes and Seasons Royal Oak Village for the exceptional care and compassion that she received.
