Mary Frances Ruth Driessen was born to Bertie Mae Newton and Franklin Ruth in Hampton County, South Carolina on November 6, 1955. She was a member of the Lewis Pentecostal and part of Twilight the singing group.

Mary was full of love, laughter, and resilience. She loved gospel music, her garden, and cooking. She also loved her family to come and spend time with her.

Mary was united in Holy Matrimony to Leon Driessen.

As she enters the pearly gates, she will be greeted by her parents, brother, and other family.

On Sunday, November 10, 2024, Mary gained her angel wings from the earth to eternity in her home surrounded by family as she took flight to be with the Lord.
