Mary Christine Cross
July 9th, 1957 - January 15th, 2025
Our beloved Mary Christine Cross (nee Kella) age 67, of Muskegon Mi passed away Wednesday January 15, 2025. She is survived by her husband of 26 years, Wayne Cross; children Kristin (Drew) Boyd and Hunter (Heather) Cross; grandchildren Kamryn, Brooklyn, Mason, Kane and Hadley; Brother Steven (Brenda) Kella, brother and sisters-in-law, nieces, nephews and countless friends. Preceding her in death are her parents Charles and Barbara Kella and her older sister Baby Girl Kella.
Mary grew up and was a lifelong resident of Muskegon, where she attended Fruitport High School, class of 1975. She enjoyed bowling, golfing, playing pool, crafting, making the best Halloween costumes, was a phenomenal cook and had the biggest and best laugh. After retiring from the phone company, she enjoyed spending her winters in Florida with her husband escaping the cold winters. She loved searching for neat shells and sifting for shark teeth. Mary was always the life of the party and loved her family to pieces.
Mary was loved fiercely and deeply, and we take comfort in knowing that she is now reunited with her loving parents.
A celebration of life will be held in early June, with further details to be provided upon her arrival home for her eternal resting.
“You never said I’m leaving, you never said goodbye. You were gone before we knew it, and only God knew why. A million times we needed you, and million times we cried. If love alone could have saved you, you never would have died. In life we loved you dearly, in death we love you still. In our hearts you hold a place that no one could ever fill. It broke our hearts to lose you, but you didn’t go alone. For part of us went with you, the day God took you home.” Author Unknown.
