It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Mary Ferrante, who was born on October 28, 1957, and peacefully left this world on March 26, 2025, in Sanford, Florida, United States. She was the beloved daughter of Cornelius and Elizabeth Gallagher. Mary grew up in Union, New Jersey with her sisters Beth (Klemens) Anne (Peach) and Neil Gallagher. 

Mary married her loving husband, Arnold Ferrante, in 1979, and together they raised three children: Elizabeth Harris (deceased), Tara (spouse Leo Vincent), and Michael Ferrante. She was also a proud grandmother to seven grandchildren.

Mary attended Mother Seton Regional High School before pursuing a degree in Paralegal Studies at Seminole State College. She worked diligently at Orlando Health Risk Management and was deeply involved with various law firms. Mary served as the President of the Homeowners Association in her community and enjoyed shopping, and spending time with her family. She was particularly proud of her academic achievements in paralegal studies, and had a great love for the beach.

Mary will be remembered for her kindness, dedication, and love for her family. She touched the lives of many and will be deeply missed.

May she rest in peace.
