Mary Plummer

Mary M. Plummer, 88, Litchfield Park, AZ, and formerly of Helena and Lewistown, Montana, and Dickinson, North Dakota, passed away peacefully on February 17 , 2010, at Chaparral Winds Assisted Living Facility in Surprise, Arizona. She was born August 20, 1921, in Dickinson, North Dakota, to Joseph J. and Anna Dietz Koffler. Mary is survived by her children, Jerry Cloud of Hudson, Colorado, Don Cloud of Montana City, Montana, three granddaughters, one grandson and five great grand children. Also a brother, Matt of Mandan, North Dakota, and sister Rose of Dickinson, North Dakota, survive her. She was preceded in death by her husband, Cecil W. Plummer, her parents, sisters Anna, Tillie, Barbara and Betty and brothers John and George. Mary spent her life living and caring for her family whom she cared for dearly. An avid sports fan, Mary had the opportunity to attend live games played by the Arizona Cardinals and Diamondbacks and the Phoenix Suns, and for the past several years, she has followed each team religiously on television. A resident of Chaparral Winds since 2003, Mary’s nickname was “The Angel,” as she was known for assisting others who were less mobile or able than she was. She made many friends among the staff and residents of Chaparral Winds and she enjoyed her twice daily bingo and card games immensely. Jerry and Don and the immediate family are very grateful to friends and immediate and extended families including the Plummers, Clouds, MacDonalds, Allbrights, Mosiers and others who have been so supportive throughout Mary’s illness. Memorial services will be held at a later date in Helena, Montana.
