Mary Nettie DeVincent, age 89, a resident of Pasadena for 58 years, died on January 16, 2016 at Anne Arundel Medical Center after a lengthy illness.
She was born on May 8, 1926, in Baltimore, to the late Mary and Thomas E. Nelson. After graduating from high school, she became a homemaker and mom, raising four children. She went on to work at Hutzler's Southdale and at Sandusky's Riviera Bowl, each for about 10 years. She loved to go dancing with her husband, as they were both great dancers, and, of course, loved spending time with her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren.
Along with her parents, Mary is preceded in death by her beloved husband of fifty nine and a half years: Anthony DeVincent, Sr., her sister Grace Ringler, and her brother Earl Nelson.
She is survived by her three daughters: Christine Dean, of Belcamp, MD, Deborah Stecker, of Pasadena, and Gail Thomas, of Glen Burnie; her son Anthony DeVincent, Jr.; eight grandchildren and four great grandchildren.
