She was a member of the Ladies Altar Society, Catholic Daughters and a very faithful member of the Immaculate Conception Catholic Church. She faithfully prayed her rosary every day.

Mrs. Gary is survived by her children, Roxanna (friend Jimmy Connor) Looney of Mermentau, Sharon (Gary) LeBlanc of Welsh, Donna (Earl) Thibodeaux of Jennings, Darren (Gwen) Gary of Roanoke, Brian (fiancé Brenda Cooper) Gary of Moss Bluff, Mark (Tiffany) Gary of Denham Springs; daughter-in-law Brenda Gary of Lake Arthur; 14 grandchildren; and 12 great-grandchildren.
