Mary S. (Santini) Black, 67, of Bolton, MA, formerly of Naples, FL and Marlborough, MA, died on Saturday, June 27th at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston. She is survived by her husband of 46 years, J. Howard Black Sr. of Bolton.
Mary was born and raised in Philadelphia, PA, daughter of the late Nicholas and Yolanda (Bilotti) Santini. She attended local schools in Philadelphia and was a 1965 graduate of Olney High School.

Mary had many interests in her life besides the foundation and all the wonderful charities it supported. She loved to travel and enjoyed spending time with her close friends over good food and wine.

She will always be remembered and truly missed.
