Much of Mary’s early life was spent in Mississippi, but she returned to Indiana and graduated from high school at Metea in 1935. She graduated from a junior college in Mississippi in 1937. After working a couple of years, she returned to Indiana and married Roland Armstrong in 1939 at the Bethlehem Presbyterian Church.

After their home in beautiful Brownwood, Texas was devastated by Hurricane Carla in 1961, they moved it to higher ground in Crosby, Texas in 1978.

While teaching in Deer Park, Mary volunteered at Sterling Municipal Library on Saturdays. After retiring, she spent three happy years as Young Peoples Librarian. Mary wrote several children’s stories which were published in magazines.

Sterling Municipal Library prints it and offers it free to patrons. After retiring from the library, Mary spent a number of years volunteering in Baytown Schools helping first and second grade children with reading. One of her favorite stories was about a little boy who read to her in the hall. He looked at her hand and said “You are old!” “Yes, I know I am,” she said. “Why?” he asked. “I have just lived a long time,” she told him. Then he said, “Why don’t you move away?” And now she has.
