Mary F. Lawton

July 9, 1941 — September 30, 2019

Our mother, Mary F. (Roberts) Lawton of Kingston, NY formally of Granville and New Paltz, NY, passed away peacefully surrounded by her loving family at Albany Medical Center on 9/30/2019. She was a long-time hairstylist in Kingston for over 40 years and took pride in making her clients look and feel beautiful. She was a proud owner of Hair Pizazz and Nails for 25 years until her part time retirement.

Mom was a devoted mother to her 9 children and 3 step children. She taught us to embrace life, have fun, give to others, and most importantly taught us how to persevere through our struggles. She was a woman with charisma, style and had a fierce passion for independence and instilled that in her family.

She is also survived by 17 grandchildren, 15 great grandchildren and 5 siblings. As well as many nieces and nephews. She is predeceased by her husband Allen Lawton, her son Duane Hall III, a great granddaughter, her parents and a brother. Mom leaves behind her beloved dog, Lizzy Lou who she loved dearly.
