Mary J. Treusch
1945-2021
“Don’t cry because it’s over, SMILE because it happened!”
Mary passed away peacefully at her home of over 20 years with her children at her side.
Mary grew up in Agawam, Massachusetts, and fell in love with the outdoors, animals and people, while learning the value of an honest day’s hard work. She graduated from Agawam High then attended Westfield State College. She married and had two children Jennifer and Christopher and settled in Simsbury, CT, but after 25 years it was time for a change.
Mary went on to focus on herself and her career, and became a female pioneer in the water industry before retiring. During that time she met Kenneth Treusch whom she fell in love with and married in 1994, he brought her so much joy. They relocated to Florida and settled in Sebastian. Mary’s drive & energy did not “retire”. She kept busy volunteering for the Humane Society, the hospital and continued to work for an amazing family. She was an active member of the Moose Lodge #1767. They indulged her fantasy job as a bartender, where she truly enjoyed the social atmosphere of tending bar.
She was an avid lover of life and some of her passions & loves include time with friends~old and new, her family, her grandchildren, playing Poker and Bridge, skydiving, golf with her BFF, thrifting, spending time in her garden with her flowers, birds & wind chimes…and a glass of wine.
She is survived by her two children, Jennifer Mercedes Finaldi and Christopher Robin (Bridget) Day; her grandchildren Chaston Drake & Trevor Colby Finaldi, Abigail Nevaeh & Christopher Edward Day; siblings, Judy (Paul) Bilodeau, Richard (Lynn) Wilson, Stuart “Champ” (Theresa) Wilson; nieces and nephews, Debbie (Steve) Vorhees, Paul “Matt” Bilodeau, Lisa (Mike) Wilson-Bernardara, Taylor “Growl” (Kelly) Wilson, Reverend Brett Wilson, Richard (Amy) Wilson. She had special connections with all of them. Mary also had very special bonds with Ken’s children Shannon (Gerry) Goss, Kenneth Treusch and grandchildren Jack & Callum Goss.
She also is survived by many cousins, 2 grand nephews and many friends.
Mary was preceded in death by her husband Kenneth H. Treusch in 2006, her parents Richard “Tex” and Mary (Wisnieski) Wilson and nephew Kevin Wilson.
Mary’s adventurous spirit, smile and laughter will be missed by all and she leaves behind many wonderful memories.
A few sayings to remember her by; “Stolat”, “Na Zdrowie”, “Whatever will be, will be”, “IADY”, “Do as a say, not as I do”, “Big Hugs”, “Peace”.

Mary was one of my “other Moms”!! She lived 2 doors ‘down the hill’ and was a BFF to my mom, June Wagner, for the year’s she lived in Norton, MA, and beyond. I would often tease them because they were always up and down the hill to each other’s homes carrying a jug of wine. Occasionally they would go out to eat with Pat Coughlin and Cheryl Larson, my other 2 “Moms” and order wine out. Mary tutored me in Accounting when the concepts would not stick to my teflon brain. Mary was there to pick up the pieces when mom and I were on the outs. Mom and I travelled together to celebrate with her when she married Ken Treusch, who was most definitely the Love of her life!!! Mom never drove any where far from home and we all laughed when June got her first speeding ticket ever on the way there that day! Mary was there once again to pick up the pieces when my mom passed away suddenly. I was a single mom with a just turned 1-year old, and I needed my mom. Mary was there then and over the years to remind me how much my mom loved me and was proud to be my mom. I am sad that I did not get together with Mary as we were recently planning. However, I look forward to the day we meet in Heaven. and I hug her and tell her again and again how much I love her! You are so right when you say, “Don’t cry because it is over. SMILE because Mary happened!”

I will always remember Mary and her beautiful smile. I first met her at the Moose and we became friends. Along with another friend; we would occasionally go out for lunch. She was always so positive. My condolences to all of her family and friends. How lucky we all were to have known this lovely lady.

There are two bar stools with our names on them at Ruby Tuesday’s in Sebastian. We’d sit and chatter with the barkeeps over 2 (never more!) glasses of white wine and a yummy dinner (lots went home in doggie bags during the last year). The whole event never lasted more than an hour or so lately. Mary was an extra special buddy whom I’ll miss forever. My sympathy to her family.

Karl & I met Ken & Mary on the golf course and were paired as a 4 some. Found out that they had just moved into Collier Club Also, and we became instant friends. We often played golf together and after Ken passed, Mary & I played 9 holes every Sunday morning, then went to earls for a bacon egg and cheese sandwich. We became bffs, and she and I visited each other almost every night and had a glass of wine together. I will truly miss my friend. I know your happy know and are with your beloved Ken. Lots of love Joanne & Karl

I first met Mary when she came to work for Avon Water Company. Her smile and boundless energy brightened the office every day. My wife Judy and l became firm friends with Mary and her first husband Dick. We would meet after work every Friday for Happy Hour, which lasted longer than an hour. lt was at bar in Avon CT the name of which escapes me. They made the mistake of offering all the Shrimp you could eat and all the beer you could drink for $10 and then wondered why they went out of business after we started going there. Lots of good memories RIP my friend, love Dave and Judy.

I shared whine and wine these past few years over Zoom with Mary Jean. Tony forever played really fierce cribbage games with Mary Jean. Think in the long run, they tied.
Dear friend, we love you and will miss you. So blessed to have been your friend.
