F. Brendan Wallace Retired bank clerk

A Mass of Christian burial for F. Brendan Wallace, a retired clerk for the Mercantile-Safe Deposit and Trust Co., will be offered at 10 a.m. today at the chapel of St. Mark Roman Catholic Church, 30 Melvin Ave., Catonsville.

Mr. Wallace, who was 47 and lived on Champlain Drive in Woodlawn, died Monday of cancer at St. Agnes Hospital.

He retired a year and a half ago because of illness after working at the bank for nearly 20 years.

Earlier, he worked for Alex. Brown & Sons and for an investment company in Washington.

Born in Baltimore, he was a graduate of St. Bernardine's School and the Edmondson High School.

He was a member of the Emerald Isle Club and St. John's Oldtimers of the 10th Ward and was fond of telling and listening to stories from Irish folklore.

Mr. Wallace is survived by his father and stepmother, John F. and Nora A. Wallace of Catonsville; a brother, Jack Wallace of Woodlawn; a stepbrother, James Feehan of Woodbine; and three stepsisters, Maureen Boyle of Lake Zurich, Ill., Patricia Lally of Arnold and Nonie Feehan of Manchester.
