Mary Holecz, 87 of Douglassville, PA (formerly of Allentown) passed away peacefully on Friday, March 05, 2021. Born in Rabatotfalu, Hungary, Mary immigrated to Bethlehem with her sister Theresa, following the 1956 Hungarian Revolution.  There she met her future husband of 60 years, Joseph, a fellow Hungarian immigrant.  Before settling down and raising two sons in the South Mountain section of Allentown, Mary worked as a seamstress for various knitting mills throughout the ABE area.  Throughout her life, sewing remained a passion.  Her skills were second to none, she could make or fix anything.  Even while in Hospice, Mary inquired about the state of her beloved Singer sewing machine. Retirement was filled with gardening and enjoying her grandchildren.  Mary lived in Allentown until the death of her husband, then moved to Douglassville to be closer to her son and grandchildren.  This enabled her to attend various school functions and family events.  Always a smile on her face, her kind and gentle demeanor will forever be missed. Mary is survived by her son: David and his wife: Lisa, and 2 grandchildren: Zachary and Emily (Pottstown), sister: Anna Somenek (Hungary), brothers: Laszlo, Fernec (both of Hungary) and Joseph (Switzerland). Mary was preceded in death by her husband: Joseph, her son: Joseph Jr., mother and father: Terezia (Doncsecs) & Istvan Kranyecz (Hungary), sister: Theresa Treiber (Bethlehem), and brother: Istvan (Switzerland).

Services:  Giving respect to our family and friends during this pandemic, a 'Celebration of Life' for Mary will be held later this spring/summer.
