Mary Lee Stevens

STEVENS_Mary Lee Stevens, 64, a resident Albuquerque, passed away in the early morning hours of Monday, August 17, 2009. Mary was born Mary Lee Morris on August 26, 1944 in Bernalillo County, New Mexico. She was the fifth of six children born to George Downey Morris of Bland Canyon, New Mexico (born December 30, 1909) and Sarah Eavenson Morris of Seymour, Texas (born December 15, 1911). She spent most of her life as a resident of New Mexico, but lived in Montclair, California for seventeen years, until the retirement of herself and her husband in 2002. Mary was a much-loved wife, mother, grandmother, and friend. During her time here she touched so many lives and her loss will be felt deeply by people too numerous to list. Though she is gone, she will never be forgotten. She was preceded in death by both of her parents; eldest sister, Georgia Mae Bradshaw; older brother Jack Morris; and stepfather, Arthur Miller. Mary is survived by her husband of 44 years, Allen Lee Stevens of Albuquerque; children, Anna Walker of Albuquerque, Brian Stevens of North Charleston, SC, Mark Stevens of Albuquerque, and Heather Mixon of Albuquerque; nine grandchildren, Amanda Walker, Michael Floyd, Amber Walker, Kelcey Florkowski, Raymond Stevens, Carrie Stevens, Paul Floyd, Cyan Florkowski, and David Stevens; three sisters, Jessie Muller, Sarah Anderson, and Linda Moroney; family friends, Zeke Ybarra and Carol Peterson.
