On June 1, 1938, she was united in marriage to Dale R. Manning in McCallsburg, Iowa. Dale and Mary lived outside Zearing on a farm until Dale entered in the service where she lived near him while he was stationed in Biloxi, Mississippi. Upon returning home, Mary worked at Montgomery-Wards at both the old and new store and retired from there after 40 years. The Manning’s had a lake home at Lake Ponderosa in Montezuma and lived in Conrad for 35 years until moving to Marshalltown to be near family.
