Mary was born on May 15, 1957, in Chillicothe, and was lovingly raised by her mother Anna Darlene (Krider) Wood and father Arthur Jean Wood. Mary graduated from Chillicothe High School in 1976, and married the love of her life, Mark Anderson, the following year on March 12, 1977. The couple had two sons, Jesse Anderson and Jeremy Anderson, who survive. She was predeceased by her parents, husband, her stepson Mark Detty, two brothers, John Ison and Rick Ison, an infant sister Ava Wood, niece Amanda Ison, and her best friend Linda Scott. Mary was a sweet, caring mother. She was also spunky, unafraid to be herself and speak her mind. Mary loved playing cards, especially Shanghai rum, and spending time at the Circleville VFW where she once worked and was a member. In her later years, Mary worked as a home health aide until her retirement in 2016. In addition to her sons, Mary also is survived by her brother Joseph (Linda) Ison, of Kingston; sister Amy (Eddie) Wolfe; sisters-in-law Cora Ison, of Kingston, and Luella Ison, of Chillicothe; brother-in-law Mike (Cindy) Anderson, of Laurelville; several nieces and nephews; and her beloved cats Bella and Buster.
