Mary was a fearless explorer. In 1974 she attended Kumbha Mela at Rishikesh in North India with a group of students of Swami Rama. Her religious perspective was pantheistic. She rode an Elephant to live out a fantasy from Kipling's Jungle Book and she quoted the wisdom of Kaa, the python, that anger was the egg of fear. She believed that strong emotion was the enemy of simple civility and self-restraint. She returned from India with ulcerative colitis, which kept her from working the next year. In 1975-1976, both Mary and her husband Peter Wilson taught English at the Terada private school in Fukuoka, on the island of Kyushu, Japan. From 1977 to 1990 Mary taught art and English in Minneapolis schools. Mary died in September 1992, at age 46, in Minneapolis, of ovarian cancer. Her ashes are scattered in the woods at Camp, and on her grandmother's grave in Greenwood Cemetery in Park Rapidsview less
