Mary, age 65, of Toledo passed away on Monday August 15, 2016. The youngest of three children born to Rita (Tafelski) and Marty Polaski on June 24, 1951. She was a 1969 graduate of Rogers High School. She was an accomplished florist working at a variety of local flower shops. Her passion for floral design was closely followed by her devotion to the Detroit Tigers. As a loyal fan she couldn’t wait for the “Boys of Summer” to begin in April and was sad to see the season end in October. Mary was also an avid follower of Notre Dame football. From mid-April to the beginning of November you would often see her tending the flowers, bushes and the landscaping at her home. Mary provided nourishment to birds and furry critters in the backyard. In her younger years she enjoyed playing cards, gambling at a casino, bowling and canning almost anything she could get her hands on from the garden. She is survived by Steve; daughter, Holly Baldwin; grandson, Gabriel Baldwin; mother, Rita Polaski; sister, Shirley (Jim) Sumner; aunt, Cathy Knakiewicz; cousin, Mike Small; and the Mitro and Schlosser families. Mary was preceded in death by her father, Marty Polaski; brother, Jim Polaski and in-laws, Nellie and Walter Horoszewski. Family and friends may visit

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, The courage to change the things I can, And the wisdom to know the difference.
