Other survivors include one son, Benjamin Hull of Quincy, IL and one daughter, Hannah Hull (John) of St. Louis, MO; two grandchildren, Alexis Haughey (Justin) and Zachary Haistings-Hull; and two great grandchildren, Wyatt Haughey and Brody Haughey.

Mary retired from the Quincy Clinic where she managed the billing department for many years. In her retirement she was a custodian at the First Christian Church in Quincy. Away from work, Mary loved to cook for her family and made the best homemade applesauce and red velvet cake. Traveling throughout the United States with her husband, Jerry, and their family were adventures that Mary enjoyed. Whether visiting Crater Lake in Oregon or watching the whales in Massachusetts, Mary was always up for a trip. Country music and dancing weekly were activities that Mary always looked forward to. Collecting recipes, old TV shows, and reading biographies were also a few of Mary’s favorites. Most of all, she cherished the time she shared with her family, especially her grandchildren. Mary was a member of the Ursa Christian Church for over 55 years where she sang in the church choir and taught Sunday School. Pallbearers will be David Croxton, Daniel Sowell, Chance Gooding, Teddy Glore, April Baker-Maggart, and John Shelton. Memorial contributions may be made to the Ursa Christian Church or to the Alzheimer’s Association. Online condolences may be made and a video tribute may be viewed at www.OdonnellCookson.com.
