Maryland athletics mourning the death of longtime booster Mary Gossett

Mary Gossett, who along with her husband, Barry, was a constant presence at Maryland athletic events for nearly a half-century and longtime donor to the athletic department and university, died Monday, the university announced.

Calling her “a gracious presence and fervent supporter,” university president Wallace D. Loh said in a statement, “Mary's passing brings great sadness to this campus and to the many lives she touched. … We will miss Mary deeply.”

The Gossetts, whose names adorn the football team house that their $10 million donation helped build, recently committed another $21.
