Mary Elizabeth Murphy Mcgraw, 94, Retired Elementary School Teacher
Mary Elizabeth Murphy Mcgraw, 94, passed away peacefully at her home early Friday morning, Nov. 30, 2012.
She was born in Fordsville, Ky., but grew up in Louisville with her two sisters, Alberta and Tillie. She retired as an elementary school teacher after over 30 years in the Jefferson County Public Schools. She reportedly had a record number of former students come back to her schools to visit with her and thank her for being their favorite teacher. Prior to her teaching career, she held numerous positions, including working for Woolworth?s, A.B. Dick, Brown Forman, Oleanda Park summer director and Curtis Wright, where she made parts for the B-53 bomber during World War II.
Mary was a graduate of Girls? High School at the current location of duPont Manual High School, where her late husband Woodson and all of her children attended high school. Mary received her master?s degree from Spalding University and was just a few hours away from her doctorate. She was active in the Oakdale Methodist Church near Churchill Downs until the Church was converted into the Kentucky Racing Authority.
Mary?s first love in life was her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. She also loved her Irish heritage, watching her children play baseball, basketball and football, arguing with referees, cooking family meals, playing card games, taking care of her dog ?Meathead? during his life, playing piano, square dancing and bowling. She and her late husband bowled in leagues, and she bowled above 200 on numerous occasions.
She played basketball and softball on the same teams as her daughter. Mary enjoyed many happy times with friends. Her favorite group of friends was the ONO Club (Our Night Out) including Olice, Frankie, Kathleen, Alice, Ethel, Edna, Anita and Hazel, who shared fun together for over 40 years.
Mary loved staying at home with family and friends. She lived over nine decades without ever getting on an airplane. Even so, she traveled by car throughout the U.S.
Mary also loved Regina as her best friend, who eventually became her main caregiver. They spent many years together, sharing the good times as well as the tough times. Many thanks also to her other caregivers: Kelly, Sue, Theresa and Jeanie.
Many people claim to have the best Mom in the world but Mary was just that. She always put her children?s interests way above her own and was fiercely loyal and supportive of her extended family.
She is survived by her sons, Woodson McGraw Jr. (MarEva) and Mick McGraw (Cheryl); daughter, Nancy Thompson (Glenn); grandchildren Emily, Scott, Ron, Melissa, Kelly, Brian and Julie; and great grandchildren, Ben, Maggie, Catherine, Ronan, Maura, Harrison, Chase, Avery, Crawford, Jack and Nate, all of whom want to confirm her status as grandmother of the century.
