RIP Mary Wells, 1942 - 2018

I just found out today that Mary passed away January 28th. She had suffered from COPD for some time died after a week in the hospital with family by her side.

Here daughter Stacy wrote a very touching and detailed account of her final days and made it public on Facebook. Since the post is public, if you have a Facebook account you can leave comments for the family.

No! what a top lady, RIP Mary gone but never forgotten

I really enjoyed my interactions with her on this site.
she was all class and a great ambassador for the sport

RIP

What a great write up by her daughter. We are all better sailors and voices for catamarans as a result of Rick and Mary. Its the end of an era, but I am grateful to have been friends and enjoyed some time with them both.

RIP, Mary, you are dearly missed!

Mike

Mary, like Rick did so much for the sailing community. Rest in Peace.
