Parking with attendants on duty. Mary Elizabeth (Tarby) Dunkman Born in Everett on October 16, 1928. She passed away comfortably after a brief period of failing health surrounded by her loving family on September 2, 2019, at 90 years. Mary attended Everett High School and Salem State College, then called Salem Teachers College. She worked as a bookkeeper/office manager for many years in Boston, first for WBCN Radio at both their Boston and NYC stations, for a large Boston Advertising Agency, then Town and Country Jewelers before starting her own minority woman owned business, progressive for the times. She operated Boston Cleaning and Equipment well into her 80’s where her zest for life and overall chutzpa severed her well. I’m sure there were clients she dealt with strictly over the phone who had no idea of her advanced age. Retiring after the unexpected death of her son, Mary moved to Kennebunkport Maine with her daughter and son in law. There she enjoyed rides by the beach, local seafood and family holiday gatherings. Mary was best known among family and friends for her cooking and OBITUARIES | SEE PAGE 22 • Burials • Cremations • Pre-Arrangements • Serving the Greater Boston and North Shore regions for over 250 years!
