Mary was born May 26, 1944 to the late JB and Iva Lee Gipson. On January 13, 1996, she married Joe Binns. She held many jobs throughout her career, including secretary to the Region #14 Education Service Center head, secretary of the Smith Baptist Association, and managing a physical therapy clinic. However, her occupation she was most proud of was being a wife, mom, and granny.

Mary was co-director of the Senior Adult Couples 5 Department at Hyde Park Baptist Church, Austin, TX and previously a choir member at Prestonwood Baptist Church in Dallas and Hyde Park Baptist Church.

Mary Frances was a loving wife and always ready to go somewhere. Her most memorable trip was to Israel to see where Jesus walked. Now, she walks with Him for eternity. She also had an amazing trip to Thailand for 3 weeks, with her friends.

She was known to light up a room with her big smile and in previous years, with her big hats. She was a lady’s lady, in that she enjoyed being dressed to the Nines in her high heels and Sunday best.

Mary Frances is survived by her husband, Joe Binns; daughter, Shannon Lusk and Rob Kittley of Rule, TX; son, Stephen and Michaell Lusk of Lubbock, TX; Joe’s sons, Bryan Binns of Plano, TX; and Matthew Binns of Austin, TX.
