Mary Pyle Fertig

Loved Her Family, Dogs, and the Beach

Mary Pyle Fertig, age 78 of Kennett Square, PA, passed away peacefully on Thursday, March 5, 2020 at Ware Presbyterian Village.

Born in Wilmington, DE in 1941, she was the daughter of the late Carl Pyle and the late Mary Taylor Pyle.

Mary was a longtime parishioner of Lower Brandywine Presbyterian Church. She was also a dedicated volunteer with Canine Partners for Life. She trained and socialized puppies to help them become service dogs and companions for those in need.

What made Mary the happiest was being around her family. She adored her grandkids and family was everything to her.

Mary loved to have fun in the sun and was an avid beach goer. She had a deep love of dogs and also enjoyed shopping and cooking meals for the whole family. Mary was humble, kind and caring and she will be missed by all who knew her.

Mary is survived by two sons, Kevin L. Fertig and his wife, Allison, of Kennett Square, PA, and David C. Fertig of Kennett Square, PA; her daughter, Crystal F. Bennett and her husband, Craig of Nottingham, PA; as well as 8 grandchildren. Mary was predeceased by her husband, M. Lee Fertig in 2015.
