In addition to her parents, she was predeceased by five siblings, Billy Baker, Jimmy Baker, Robert Baker, Johnny Baker and Lillie Mae Baker; two sisters-in-law, Carolyn J. Daniels and Hilda J. Johnson; and four brothers-in-law, Eston Hucks, Wayne Phillips, Winfred Daniels, and Grant Johnson. She is survived by her husband of 58 years, McKeaver James, Jr.; two daughters, Sharon J.

Mary was a Godly woman and an active member of Juniper Bay Baptist Church where she was saved as a young adult and served her Lord faithfully from that day on. She served on several committees in her church, including serving as Senior Adult Leader and was also named "Woman of the Year" in the 80's. She truly had a servant's heart and she found the most joy when taking care of everyone else. She was the happiest when she was cooking and taking care of her family. She was such a loving and caring wife, mother, and grandmother and will be dearly missed. The family would like to extend a special thank you to her caregiver, Brenda Garrett.
