Loving grandmother of Jessica Santiago, Nicole King (Josh), Kevin Alexander and Allison Shapansky (Shane). Adoring great grandmother of Derek and Devyn Santiago. Mary Frances leaves her beloved companion of the last 25 years, Tom Hayes (Las Vegas, NV), who brought her such happiness and joy in the last chapter of her life. Preceded in death by her parents and step father, Felice (Alfred) Pellillo.

She will be remembered with much love and affection for her giving heart. Leading exercise and yoga classes for 35 years was her passion. Starting at My Fair Lady, European Health Spa and Baly's, she continued to lead by example. Her motto of Live, Love and Laughter will remain, with all who loved her. She felt it was her mission to give a smile and a "heart to heart" hug to anyone she encountered.
