She was born on July 25, 1950, in Corning, NY to Mary (Dunay) Sterpe and Louis Sterpe, Sr. Her mother was born in Czechoslovakia and came to the U.S. at a young age with her parents. Her father was born in Italy and came to the U.S. with his parents.

她于1950年7月25日出生于纽约州康宁（Corning），玛丽（Dunay）Sterpe和Sr. Louis Sterpe。她的父亲出生于意大利，与他的父母一起来到美国。

Mary graduated from Corning-Painted Post East High School. She was brought up with the Slovac ideals where girls did not ride bikes or drive cars. Shortly after graduating from high school, Mary decided that was not going to work any longer and went to the local car dealer and bought herself a new (stick-shift orange) Maverick. The salesperson drove Mary home in her new car and pulled up in front of their house. Mary jumped out, went into the house where she greeted her parents and said to her dad “Come look what I just bought - now you have to teach me how to drive” and he did.

玛丽毕业于康宁（Corning）的东高中。她以斯洛伐克理想的身份长大，女孩没有骑自行车或驾驶汽车。高中毕业后不久，玛丽决定不再工作了，而是去了当地的汽车经销商，并为自己买了一个新的（瞬间切换橙）。销售人员将玛丽乘坐新车开回家，然后在他们的房子前拉了。玛丽跳了出去，走进房子，她向父母打招呼，对父亲说：“来看看我刚买的东西 - 现在你必须教我如何开车”，他做到了。

Following high school, Mary completed Mohawk Airlines Career School in Utica, New York. She then moved to Washington DC where her sister Pat and husband lived. Mary began her working years at the Bureau of Naval Personnel in Civil Service as a Personnel Staffing Assistant. She received a Certificate of Appreciation for a job well done.

高中毕业后，玛丽在纽约的尤蒂卡（Utica）完成了莫霍克航空的职业学校。然后，她搬到华盛顿特区，姐姐帕特（Pat）和丈夫住在那里。玛丽以人员配备助理的身份在海军人员局开始工作。她对做得好的工作获得了赞赏证书。

Mary met her future husband David in Washington DC where he was stationed in the U.S. Navy at the Washington Naval Shipyard. They were introduced to each other by Mary’s sister Pat who lived in an apartment next door to David. After a fairly short courtship of 4 months, Mary and David got married on October 9, 1971, in a small outdoor chapel on the northern outskirts of Richmond, Virginia.

玛丽在华盛顿特区遇到了她未来的丈夫戴维（David），在那里他驻扎在华盛顿海军造船厂。玛丽的姐姐帕特（Pat）互相介绍，他住在大卫隔壁的公寓里。经过4个月的短暂求爱后，玛丽和大卫于1971年10月9日在弗吉尼亚州里士满北部郊区的一个小型户外教堂结婚。

Mary and David recall calling their parents and informing them of their wedding plans. Having only been dating for 10-12 weeks the reaction from their mothers was universal “Is it a must?”. Their first child Paula came along 4 ½ years later and Mary and David celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary on October 9, 2021.

玛丽和大卫回忆起给他们的父母打电话，并告知他们他们的婚礼计划。只约会了10-12周，他们母亲的反应是普遍的“必须吗？”。他们的第一个孩子宝拉（Paula）出现在4。5年后，玛丽和戴维（Mary）和戴维（David）于2021年10月9日庆祝结婚50周年。

Mary and David remained in the Washington DC area until David’s honorable discharge from the Navy in April of 1973. Although somewhat hesitant, David convinced Mary to move to Fond du Lac. They lived on the north-east corner of Park Ave. and Division streets for 23 years in a duplex which they later purchased and converted into a single-family home.

玛丽和戴维一直留在华盛顿特区，直到1973年4月大卫从海军出院。他们在公园大道的东北角和分区街的东北角住了23年，在一个双工中，后来购买并改建为单户住宅。

Mary continued pursuing a career at Mercury Marine as a legal assistant until the birth of their first child in April of 1976. At that point, she decided to be an at-home mom to help raise their three children. In addition to being an at-home mom, Mary and David got involved in the coin-op laundry business owning and operating two coin-op laundries in the Fond du Lac area, all while raising three children and David pursuing his career at Giddings & Lewis. She also became involved with the Wisconsin Automatic Laundry and Cleaning Council as secretary/treasurer and editor of their monthly newspaper as well as writing articles for national magazines such as American Coin-op and Coinamatic Age.

玛丽继续在水星海军陆战队担任法律助理职业，直到1976年4月第一个孩子出生。那时，她决定成为一名家庭妈妈，以帮助抚养三个孩子。除了成为家庭妈妈之外，玛丽和大卫还参与了在Fond du Lac地区拥有和经营两个硬币洗衣店的硬币洗衣业务，同时抚养了三个孩子，大卫在Giddings＆Lewis从事他的职业生涯。她还参与了威斯康星州自动洗衣委员会和清洁委员会的秘书/司库，也是他们的每月报纸的编辑，并为美国杂志（例如美国硬币和共同时代）撰写文章。

As Mary’s children were growing up, she was very involved with volunteering at Chegwin Elementary School and St. Mary’s Springs High School. She was also involved with Friends Aware of Violent Relationships and served on the Fond du Lac Transit Advisory Committee.

随着玛丽的孩子们的成长，她非常参与切格温小学和圣玛丽温泉高中的志愿服务。她还参与了意识到暴力关系的朋友，并在Fond du Lac Transit咨询委员会任职。

When Mary’s youngest daughter Kristin started high school, Mary decided it was time to go back to work outside of her home. Mary received her Wisconsin Real-Estate license in the fall of 1996 and worked real estate until her retirement in December of 2022. Mary loved working in real estate and the relationships she gained from her clients. Mary was never a “top” producer but always put personal relationships with her clients ahead of how much commission she could make.

当玛丽最小的女儿克里斯汀（Kristin）上高中时，玛丽（Mary）决定该回到家外工作了。玛丽在1996年秋天获得了威斯康星州房地产许可证，直到2022年12月退休。玛丽喜欢从事房地产工作以及从客户那里获得的关系。玛丽从来都不是“顶级”制作人，但总是在她可以做出多少佣金之前与客户建立个人关系。

Shortly after their daughter Kristin’s death in 2005, Mary wrote a book entitled “Kristin’s Book – a life and death connection” which was published and made available through Barnes & Noble.

玛丽在女儿克里斯汀（Kristin）于2005年去世后不久，玛丽（Mary）写了一本书，题为《克里斯汀（Kristin）的书 - 《生死与死亡的联系》，该书通过Barnes＆Noble出版并提供。
