Obituary

Mary M. Temple, 90, of Baytown, TX, went to be with the Lord on Monday, May 1, 2017 in Baytown, Texas. She was born on May 15, 1926 in Hazlehurst, Mississippi to Brown Myers and Georgia Foster Myers.

She was a housewife and spent her life being a caregiver to everyone. Mary was a woman with a good sense of humor, who liked to laugh and was fun to be around.

She was an avid fan of sports from the Houston Rockets, Astros, or Texans or any team who happened to be playing and loved all animals, especially dogs. Mary liked her sweets and enjoyed cooking and baking.

She has lived in Crosby, Texas for over 30 years and is now returning to her beloved Mississippi! She will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved her.

She is preceded in death by her beloved husband, Morris T. Temple; parents, Brown and Georgia Myers; and brothers, Houston Myers, Otis Myers, and Hubert Myers.

Mary is survived by her daughter, Pat Raines and husband Jim; granddaughter, Megan Miller and husband Ryan and great-granddaughter, Emmaly Miller; step children, Frances Jones; Joe Temple; step-grandchildren, Debbie Andrews, Morris Jones, Joel Temple, Dana Bishop, Cindy Harris, Karen Gillaspie; Paula Foreman, Chris Raines, JC Stone and all their families; and a host of extended family and friends.

Quote from Megan: "She was our laughter and our comfort, she was the best cornbread maker ever, she was an animal lover, and a caretaker to all, she loved pies, cakes, and cookies, and any sports game she could find, she loved her family, but most importantly she loved Jesus."
