Mary L. Stadelman, Age 70, of Lockport, NY,  a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and friend, passed away peacefully on April 29, 2026.

Mary found joy in the simple pleasures of life. She loved playing cards, spending time with friends and family, and cherished moments at camp. Her laughter echoed through countless gatherings—whether she was playing cornhole, country line dancing back in the day, or enjoying a cold Coors Light with a slice of pizza. Known for her kind heart and generous spirit, Mary touched the lives of all who knew her.

She was predeceased by her parents, Paul and Dorothy Weaver (Vorholzer); her siblings, John Weaver, Frank Weaver, David Weaver, Carol Beauman, and Ruth Beiter; and her beloved son, Franklin P. Wagner.

Mary is survived by her adoring husband of 45 years, Jerry Stadelman; her loving children, David Wagner (Brianna) and Annie (Stadelman) Yensan; her cherished grandchildren, Justin DeLange (Kayla), Andrew Wagner, Paige Lazzaro (Dan), Ian Wagner (Lacey), Lucas Yensan, and Liam Yensan; and her great-grandchildren, McKenna DeLange and Ruth Lyn Lazzaro.

Mary encouraged others to embrace kindness in their daily lives. She believed in doing good deeds, striking up conversations with strangers, and finding joy in the little things. She often reminded us, “your life goes by so fast,” urging us not to wait too long to pursue our dreams and to savor every moment.

Mary will be deeply missed and fondly remembered by all whose lives she touched. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly asks that donations be made to the American Cancer Society in Mary’s memory.

Family and Friends are invited to visitation on Monday, May 4th from 4PM-7PM at Prudden and Kandt Funeral Home, 242 Genesee St, Lockport. A funeral service will follow on Tuesday, May 5th at 10AM at Prudden and Kandt Funeral Home. Interment will be in Cold Spring Cemetery.
