Mary Frances (Marett) Stoll, 88, residing in Norwalk, passed away peacefully Monday, July 8, 2024, at Stein Hospice Care Center following complications due to Parkinson's Disease.
Mary was born March 12, 1936, in New London, to Harry Marett and Fern (Bailey-Marett) Ernsthausen.
Mary was employed at Norwalk Truck Line before becoming a full-time homemaker, caring for her five sons and various nieces, nephews, and neighbors. She had a deep love for hosting and attending family parties, square dances, luncheons with sisters-in-law, and cooking and baking our family's favorite traditional recipes. She was known for her renowned skills in matchmaking, having connected many couples. She was an active member at St. Anthony's Church in Milan. Mary Frances married Edward Stoll on June 7, 1958, and they spent 66 wonderful years together. They lived the majority of their life on Plank Road in Norwalk.
Mary is survived by her loving husband, Edward; five sons, Matthew (Lisa), Michael (Kelly), Gregory, Nicholas, and Kurt (Julie) all of Norwalk and surrounding areas; 14 grandchildren; 12 great-grandchildren; and many nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her parents; sisters and their husbands, Alice (Lloyd) Cochenour and Elizabeth Jane (Clifford) Mills; and brother, Ray (Connie) Marett.
