Mary Patricia “Mari” (Konieczny) Palmyra, 71, of Hatboro, PA, passed away suddenly on
December 30, 2024, at Jefferson Abington Hospital. Born July 22, 1953, she was the beloved
daughter of the late Joseph and Elaine “Sally” Konieczny who adopted and lovingly raised her as
their own. Mary grew up in Warminster, where she graduated from Archbishop Wood High
School.
Mary was a devoted wife to her late husband, Robert, and a loving mother to her three children
and two grandchildren. Mary had a love for gardening where she found peace and joy in
nurturing plants that brightened her world. She also had a deep affection for animals, offering a
warm and loving home to many furry companions throughout her life. Mary loved the Phillies,
Eagles and Vikings (they wore her favorite color purple). She had a deep love for the simplest
joys in life, including times spent playing board games with her children and grandchildren,
laughing, and creating memories that will be cherished always. Mary was strong-willed and
those who knew her cherished her authenticity and unwavering spirit. She was a unique and
vibrant presence in the lives of those she loved.
Mary was preceded in death by her husband Robert Palmyra, her daughter Krista Ann Palmyra,
