Mary Frances Haba, born July 3, 1956, entered her eternal reward on March 1, 2012 surrounded by her family. She was 55 years old. A lifelong Dallasite, Mary attended Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic School and was a graduate of Ursuline Academy.
She is preceded in death by her parents, Albert William (Willie) and Letha (Harris) Haba, and brother, Albert William (Billy) Haba, Jr. Mary is survived by her sweetheart, Bobby Lyles, her sister Marjorie Haba, her sister Wilma Kuykendall and her husband James, her sister Patricia Rodriguez and her husband Willy, and her sisters Elizabeth (Lisa) Bell and Jane Lindsley. She is also survived by her nephews and nieces, Kirk and Tamara Kuykendall, Kristine Kuykendall, Karla and Timothy Hester, Jose and Mica Perez, Amy and Jason Joyner, Jessica and Juan Morales, Alex and Chris Perez, Amanda and David Rittenhouse, Rufus Bell & fiancée Blair Davis, and Ashley Bell. She is further survived by 14 great-nieces and nephews: William, Catherine, Peter, Jordan, Benedict, Margherita, Aiden, Ashton, Nicholas, Talynn, Ezekiel, Julian, Ethan, Bryan and Poetry.
Mary will always be remembered for her warm smile, kind heart, and abiding love of family, friends, and The Beatles. She could always make you laugh with her simple outlook on life. She never missed an opportunity to send a birthday, anniversary or holiday card and she always made sure it would arrive in time by sending it a month in advance. Mary will be greatly missed by all whose lives she graced, especially the children, who so dearly loved their “friend, Mary”. “Unless you turn and become like children, you shall not enter the kingdom of heaven.” (Mt. 18:3) Mary lived this passage in all its beauty.
