CRANE, MARY ELLEN (YOUNG) is now in her beyond journey after dying peacefully at her Rio Rancho home December 8, 2013. Born on September 19, 1932 in Traverse City, MI, she shared and acquired her life lessons wherever she lived in Michigan, Wisconsin, Florida, and her beloved New Mexico. She displayed her good energy as a daughter, sister, wife, mother, aunt, grandmother, and friend. She offered herself to the community in many ways including Sunday school teacher, vestry leader, a founding employee of Hernando-Pasco Hospice, KNME volunteer, the Blue Portal volunteer, Balloon Fiesta Volunteer, and Rio Grande Zoo "Zoo to You" driver. She loved nature and kept her bird feeders cleaned & filled, she planted gardens and kept house plants, and she monitored her yard weather stations. She nurtured her personal desires by playing computer Scrabble, reading many books a month, subscribing to several magazines and daily newspapers, and occasionally enjoying pie or spaghetti for breakfast. She was daring without the scandal because she tried hot air ballooning, took pilot lessons, and as a world explorer was eager to try mass transit from as near as the New Mexico Railrunner and to as far away as Ugandan buses. Her joyous soul will be missed by her children Curt (Deb, children Father Matthew, Gregory, Collin, and Emma); Lisa; and Stuart; siblings, Grace, Gordon, and Jean as well as many nieces, nephews, in-laws and friends. No funeral planned.
