Also known as "Mean Mary" Mary Dee Brafford was born on January 11, 1923, in Corbin, Kentucky. After the birth of her three older brothers, her father was determined to have one of his children named after him. Therefore, Mary was called Mary “Dee” after her father. With three older brothers, Mary Dee played a lot of baseball, which she loves. She would often umpire the baseball games in the neighborhood. Mary Dee obtained her two-year teaching certificate from Cumberland Junior College. She began teaching grades 1-6th in Knox County, Kentucky. She eventually finished her four-year degree at Eastern Kentucky in Richmond, KY. As our own Wildcat, Mary Dee is very proud of her Kentucky heritage. She even has a hometown connection to Col. Sanders of Kentucky Fried Chicken. When she first met her husband Ralph “Kenneth” Steely, he was working for the Colonel at one of his first restaurants. Kenneth was a member of the United States Air Force, and a Bombardier Navigator during WWII. During their marriage, they moved often with their two children, Kirk and Martha. After Kenneth’s retirement, they settled in New Orleans. Mary Dee went back into the class room to teach for 16 more years. Mary Dee loved living in the Big Easy where she was involved in numerous Mardi Gras Parades and became an avid New Orleans Saints fan.
