Mary Ellen Curry

November 20, 1920 - June 24, 2016

Mary Ellen Curry, 95, of Denton, MD went to her heavenly home on Friday, June 24, 2016 at Homestead Manor in Denton. She was born November 20, 1920 to the late Harry J. Draper and Edna Shockley Draper. Mary Ellen graduated from Greensboro High School, class of 1937. She later moved to the Washington, DC area where she worked for the government for several years and enjoyed a long career as an office worker/manager in the Equitable/American General Insurance Co. until her retirement in 1985. Mary Ellen enjoyed life and lived it to the fullest. She loved music, cooking, crafts and sewing, doing charity work for the local churches, and traveling with family and friends. However, her real joy was in spending time with her precious husband and family. In addition to her parents she was preceded in death by her dear friend and husband of 19 years, Joseph A. Curry; brother, Robert Draper and nephew John E. Draper. She is survived by her sister-in-law and dear friend, Mary C. Draper, Joyce Esbensen, Joseph Curry, Jr. (Joyce), Laurie Huber (Kent), Cindy Tinkham (Keith), Corinne Bell (Paul), Wayne Draper (Carol), Mary Lou Gleockler (Robert), Jim Curry, and many more dearly loved family and friends. The family wishes to express their heartfelt gratitude to those who have blessed us by providing tender loving care to Mary Ellen in these later years. Funeral services will be held on Tuesday, July 5th, 2016 at 11 am in the Fleegle & Helfenbein Funeral Home, Greensboro. Visitation will be held from 10 am to 11 am. Burial will follow the service in the Cedar Hill Cemetery, Suitland.
