Mary Mason Zebrowski, 101, of Hardwick, formerly of the Montclair Heights section of Clifton, passed away

on Sunday morning, March 3, 2019. Born in Keyport, she lived in Clifton for over 60 years, before moving

to live with her granddaughter Anna 6 years ago. A former parishioner of St. Philip the Apostle RC Church,

Clifton, Mary was also a member of the Prime Timers.

Mary had a unique combination of intelligence, common sense, orderliness, friendliness, and cheerfulness.

One of Mary's earliest childhood memories was of a victory parade in Keyport after the end of World War I.

During the Second World War, she kept up regular correspondence with her husband who was serving in

the Pacific and her two brothers who were serving in Europe. From 1943-1944 she ran her husband's gas

station in Wallington. After selling the gas station, she worked at Scurma Screw Machine Products in

Carlstadt until the war's end. After the war, she took a job as a social worker at Passaic General Hospital.

Although she only had a high school education, her gifts and competence led to her becoming Director of

Social Services at PGH. She worked at the hospital for 30 years until her retirement in 1982.

Cherished daughter of the late John and Caroline (Stolarz) Mason of Passaic. Beloved wife of the late

Leo S. Zebrowski, who passed away in 2000. Devoted mother of the late Carolyn Matzal who passed away

in 2006. Loving grandmother of Stefan and Anton Matzal, Laura Sell, and Anna Tillinghast. Cherished

great grandmother of 18. Dear sister of the late Walter (Wanda) Mason and Emil (Rose) Mason.
