HUDSON FALLS – Margery “Midge” Mumblo, 96, lifelong resident of Hudson Falls, passed away May 1, 2020, from complications of COVID-19, while at the Glens Falls Center.
Born December 9, 1923 in Hudson Falls, where she lived her entire life, Margery was the daughter of the late Edward and Euphrosine (Benway) Maille and the daughter in law of the late Perley and Duretta Mumblo.

Margery loved her work as a waitress at Winnie and Pete’s Restaurant in Kingsbury as well as Steve and Kristy’s in Hudson Falls. She loved doing her crafts and was an avid reader. She enjoyed country music and had a special love for the “Country Express Band”, where her son, Bruce was the drummer. He would always sing a special song for his mother and then would throw her a kiss which meant so much to her. She loved having fun with everyone and you could be sure of a lot of laughter, when she was around.

She was also predeceased by her son in law, Harry Bromley and great grandson, Asher William Dufour.
She had so much love for her children. They were so good to her, always there when she needed them. Her four sons, Harold Mumblo and his companion, Cathy, Gary Mumblo and his companion, Tammy, Bruce Mumblo and his wife, Chris-Anne and John Mumblo and his wife, Paula and her two daughters, Euphrosine Bromley and Donna Legault and her husband, James were her greatest gifts.
