Mary Ailene Binstock

Mary Ailene (Crivelli) Binstock, born on July 17, 1949, in Napa, California, passed away peacefully on January 11, 2025, after a brief illness. She was the cherished daughter of Tilden and Ruth Crivelli and spent her formative years on the family dairy ranch in Carneros.

Mary shared 46 loving years of marriage with her devoted husband, Dennis Binstock. She was one of five sisters and is survived by her sisters Barbara, Anita, and Dixie. Mary was a proud mother to her three daughters, Michaele, Deassa, and Devyne. Her love extended to her grandchildren Melyssa, Mason, Bodie, and Aftyn and great-grandchildren Blair and Lydia.

Mary found happiness in tending her garden and preserving its bounty through canning. She lovingly cared for her chickens and barn cats while finding tranquility in completing jigsaw puzzles at her home in Jenner.

In honor of Mary, donations may be made to Ripple Effect Animal Project, a nonprofit organization co-founded by her daughter Deassa. Contributions can be made online at rippleeffectnapa.org or mailed to 536 Silverado Trail, Napa, CA 94559.
