Westbrook, ME - Mary Jane died peacefully on Saturday, September 21st surrounded by her entire family. She was born in Brighton, Massachusetts on August 15, 1931 to Thomas F. and Madeline F. (Fernald) McDonough. Mary Jane was a 1949 graduate of Cathedral High School where she excelled in basketball and softball. She married her husband Malcolm on September 24, 1952. They would have celebrated 67 years of marriage. We'll give it to her! Mary Jane and Malcolm made their homes up the eastern seaboard, finally settling in Westbrook in 1961. Mary Jane operated her own cake decorating business and many have enjoyed her birthday, graduation, celebrations and wedding cakes. She was fondly known as The Cake Lady. She was a beautiful soul and she loved unconditionally. She insisted that everyone call her Gram. She was quick to share her opinions and was genuine and humble to her core. Mary Jane was the quintessential New England sports fan, rarely missing a game. You could find her decorating cakes in the kitchen, cheering on her grand kids at every sporting event or making everyone feel welcome, no matter what the occasion. If you had visited "Gram" for three hours and got up to leave she would always say, "What's your hurry"? She leaves behind a legacy of love and family. She is survived by her husband of 67 years, Malcolm A. Noyes. She leaves a sister Ellen Vargas and was predeceased by her siblings, Priscilla Murphy, Thomas McDonough, Madalyn Paige, John McDonough and Frank McDonough. She leaves her seven children and their spouses, Malcolm and Cindy Noyes, Patricia and Glenn Amico, Colleen and Bill Hilton, Margaret and Marc Poulin, Shirley and Bill Barker, Stephen and Gloria Noyes, and Barbara Sawyer and her very special niece Leslie and John Cahill. She leaves her 19 grandchildren; Carrie, Amanda, Shannon, Anthony, Marissa, Billy, Emily, John, Cassandra, Colleen, Nick, Jesse, Erica, Isaac, Max, Lauren, Stephen, Andrea and Ashley. And 21 great children, Julian, Maya, Ivy, Tatum, John, Madeline, Matilda, Josephine, Sky, Rain, Aislinn, Otis, Jaycee, Norah, Colby, Casey, Cameron, Avery, Carter, Kyan and Colleen.
