1920 - 2013
 Heaven has welcomed our much loved Mother, Grandmother and friend home. Mary Carol Fenner was born September 7, 1920 and passed away April 28, 2013. She was 92 years young.
Funeral services will be 11:00 am Wednesday, May 1, 2013 at Farmer Funeral Home with interment following in Antioch Cemetery in Buna. Visitation will be 6:00 - 9:00 pm Tuesday at the funeral home.
Mary was preceded in death by her sister Anne McCoy of Corpus Christi and brother Billy Jackson of Three Rivers OK.
Left here to celebrate her life are her daughter Vedna Lester of Mauriceville; sister Catherine Netherland of Tulsa OK; grandchildren Jerry and Sandy Hrncir of Kountze, Karen and Buster Ogden of Buna, Phillip Hrncir of Mauriceville and his family, Carol Haynes of Roganville, Kim and Waylon Lewis of Western Grove AR and Heidi Lee of Walters OK; twenty three great grandchildren; fifteen great, great grandchildren and many nieces, nephews and adopted daughters and sons.
Mary called Silsbee Convalescent her home for the last eight years. She also lived in Mauriceville, and before that, she was a lifelong resident of Corpus Christi. She was known to most as a Prayer warrior, to others a mentor, a teacher, a good listener. Never judging, always full of love and compassion for each person she met. She was loved by many and will be missed terribly. She never failed to tell you, "God Bless You Real Good!", or ask "Do You Know MY Jesus?"
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Manuel Tyler's Ministry, c/o Church of God of Prophecy, 690 N 7th St, Silsbee TX 77656. Brother Tyler has been a faithful servant, and preaches at the convalescent center each Sunday.

I met Mary at Silsbee Convalescent Home through my job. I immediately fell in love with her! I talked to her like I would my own grandmother and every time I went to see her she would say, "God bless you honey. I love you." As I would walk out the door she would always blow me a kiss. She was definitely one of those people that I thanked God for letting me meet her. I will always remember her and I pray for you her family through this difficult time. She was and will always be a beautiful person. "God bless you honey and I love you!" *kisses*

To Mary's Family, we got to know and love Mary, while my mother-in-law, Rosie Reed was at the nursing home. Mary always had her makeup, jewelry, and a beautiful smile on her face, will always remember her. I stopped by to see her, when we were in April, knew she wasn't doing good, I told her she still had the beautiful smile, she said, you have the makeup and jewelry on, so we are perfect. She touch my heart from the first time I saw her, but I know she is where she wanted to be. She now can look beautiful for her Savior. Praying for you as a family, you had a jewel.

Mary was a great witness. When I first was introduced to her I could tell that she was a great soldier for the Kingdom of Christ. I enjoyed having Bible studies with her and could always count on her to uplift me and be the witness that my mother needed. I know that she was also a grat witness to the staff and the other residents at Silsbee Convalescent Center. She will be missed. I look forward to seeing her again when I am blessed to join her in the presents of our King.

I am so sorry to hear about Mrs. Fenner. I only met her a few months ago at the nursing home and didn't know her well. She was so kind and welcoming to my Mother, and I did appreciate that. She will be in my prayers.

Dearest Vedna and family,
I am so sorry to hear of your dear Mother's passing. I know that her death will leave a big Void in yourlife, but we know that your loss is heaven's gain. She was such a precious person, she truly reflected Christ's love for others. And just think of all the joyous cheers from relatives and friends as she approaches heaven's gate. And how it thrills me to think of George being one of those to greet her! My love and prayers are with you. MLH

I was Ms. Fenner's nurse for 2 yrs at Silsbee Convelescent Center. I worked nights and she was always in a positive mood. She always had a smile on her face and had the right words to lift ones spirits. She is one of the patients I have had the pleasure of knowing that I will never forget. RIP Ms. Fenner. Love you.

We have known Mary for 6 years while she was Lucys roommate. She was such a beautiful, kind and loving person. Always sharing friendship and love. She encouraged people to be their best by being Christs hands extended. We will miss her but look forward to joining her one day. We pray for all of you, that you feel Gods arms wrapped around you bringing you peace and joy and rejoicing for where Mary is even in the midst of sorrow of missing her.
