Obituary of Mary Jean Haldeman, 95
Jan. 12, 1931 – Feb. 10, 2026
– Mary “Jean” Haldeman, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and friend passed away on Tuesday, February 10, 2026, at her home in Paso Robles. Mary was born on January 12, 1931 to Angela and Edward Neumeier in Van Nuys, Ca. She was the youngest of 12 children and adored her dad, mom, big brothers and sisters. Her family was truly special to her.
Mary married beloved Bob on “Easter Sunday”, April 10, 1950. She had 5 children, 9 grandchildren, and 10 great-grandchildren. Shortly after they married, they moved to El Paso, Texas for Bob’s job. Their first child Sandy was born there. Next, they moved to Pueblo, Colorado where Teri was born and then Las Vegas, New Mexico where Jill was born. Three states, three years and three children. Shortly after that, they returned to California and made Burbank their home where Missy and Rob were born. Her children appreciate all the love and guidance she provided. We agree we had a fabulous childhood and “hit the jackpot” with her as our mother.
Mary and Bob moved to Paso Robles in 1984. They instantly fell in love with this beautiful little town. She became involved in many social groups, including the church, quilting, the red hat society, and wine clubs. Quilting was not only special to her but to “all” that received them as gifts from her heart. Every one of her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren have at least one “personalized quilt” hand made by her. They will forever be cherished as a precious possession.
Most everyone who knew Mary came to love her. She made a lasting impression on those who knew her. She was kind, generous, funny, classy, glamorous, and spiritual. At 95, she has lived a full life enjoying her family and many friends.
There will be a funeral Mass at St. Rose of Lima Catholic Church (Paso Robles, CA) on Friday March 27, 2026, at 11:00am. Friends and family will proceed to the Paso Robles Cemetery for a gravesite service. Following the graveside service, please join us in the Saint Rose Parish Center for a reception and continue the celebration of Mary’s life.
