She was born May 29, 1950 in St. Albans to Rita (Giroux) Larose and the late Albert Larose.

Mary attended elementary school in Berkshire, Enosburg, and Montgomery. At the age of 8 she was diagnosed with a brain tumor which left her legally blind.

She enjoyed her many years with Care Partners, was a member of the St. Albans PALS Group for the Blind and a devout member of the St. John the Baptist Catholic Church. Mary was very talented and found happiness in many things including, knitting, crocheting, completing puzzles, making her signature peanut butter and chocolate fudge, beading and making jewelry, playing cards, games and bingo, telling jokes, making others smile, singing and dancing, horseback riding, giving foot rubs to all, but most of all spending time with her family, especially her cherished nieces and nephews. Mary will be remembered for her ability to bring laughter, and joy to everyone around her.
