Mary E. (Deutsch) Dambik

Boardman – Mary E. Dambik, 90, of Boardman, passed away peacefully on Friday, December 2, 2022. She was a caring wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt and friend.

Mary was born to Arthur and Emma (McDurney) Deutsch on September 1, 1932 in Meadville, Pennsylvania.

Mary was a graduate from Bucyrus High School and was a working mom most of her life.

She had a true love for all animals and supported many of our four-legged friends, including adopting many homeless animals, supporting animal societies, and most especially, Angels for Animals.

She was a member of Western Reserve United Methodist Church. Mary loved her church and the congregation.

For many decades, Mary enjoyed weekends at Lake Berlin and the many friendships she developed at the lake. She loved the water, boating, and in her younger years, water sports.

Holding onto her memories Mary leaves behind her husband of over 40 years, Edward Dambik, whom she married August 7, 1982. Through their marriage they created a beautifully blended family that included her two children William Abey and Kimberly Abey, seven grandchildren Stephanie and Nick Abey, Shannon, Benjamin and William Arnim, and Joshua and Douglas Dambik; three step-sons, Edward Dambik, James (Theresa) Dambik, and John Dambik, several nieces and nephews and their families; and, of course, her beloved dog Rascal.

Mary was preceded in death by her parents, brother Arthur Deutsch and sister-in-law Ruth Deutsch.
