In memoriam: Mary Woll ‘54

The Bryn Mawr community of the Boston area is deeply saddened by the death of Mary Jobes Woll, ’54, on March 21, 2009. For many years she was a loyal and well-loved volunteer at the Cambridge Bookstore. As the long-time Membership Secretary of the Bryn Mawr Club of Boston, she had a remarkable ability to manually cull, update, and recall information about Club members. After years of hand addressing the Club’s newsletters and invitations, Mary could unerringly provide the zip code of every town the Club mailed to. She took great joy in visiting with many of our most senior alums each May Day when she helped deliver the Club’s traditional May Day baskets of flowers. Mary was patient and giving, and understood that organizations run smoothly when people pitch in to do work on all levels. Her gentle attention to detail and to the smooth running of the Club was universally appreciated. We will miss her.
