Mary R Propper

Our wonderful sweet mother Mary Rosie Propper died Tuesday, October 20, 2026 at the Maple Springs Nursing home.

Mary was born March 8, 1926 to Virginia and Raymond Rose in Logan, Utah. Mary was the fourth of four children and the only surviving sibling. Mary graduated from Logan High School and LDS Seminary. After high school she worked at the Clearfield Naval Base during World War II. Mary met the love of her life Webster Propper there and they were married in December 1945. They had 53 years together until his passing in January 1998. They had four children, Webster III, Lila Lee, Rochelle and Bonnie.

In the 1960's Webster and Mary operated and owned a motel and sold it when Webster retired. They moved to Yuba, Wisconsin and bought 60 beautiful acres. Mary volunteered at the hospital in Hillsboro, Wisconsin and joined a homemaker group of lovely ladies. The ladies always wanted the monthly meetings at Mary's because she made "really tasty, delicious cheesecakes." After 9 years in Yuba, Mary always wanted to come back to her roots, so Webster said, "OK I'll take you home to Logan, Utah."

They built their lovely home in River Heights, Utah that was always full of love and fresh bread. Mary reconnected with family and friends and joined the literary club where she made new longlasting friendships. She loved going to church on Sundays until her health became an issue. (No more driving for her which made her REALLY MAD.)

Mary was a wonderful mom and could be a pretty tough mom which we would not change for the world. Maybe she was a little too stubborn sometimes but that's why she made it to 100! When she turned 100, BIG ice cream cones became her everyday passion!

Mary's family love her and will miss her always but she is now with her husband Webster and daughter Rochelle.

Mary was preceded in death by her daughter Rochelle Hatter, and her half sister Barbara Moore.

Mary is survived by her children Webster III (Cindy), Lila Bommer (Jerry), Bonnie Propper-Fowler. Mary has one grandson Patrick Fowler. Mary also is survived by her half siblings Carol Strouberg, David Rose and Kathy Rose.

Mary's graveside service will be held on Tuesday, October 27, 2026 at 1:30 PM at the River Heights/Providence Cemetery.
