Mrs. Bell was born in Colorado Springs, Colorado, United States, on October 21, 1946. She is a daughter of Harold (a farmer and rancher) and Violet (a farmer and rancher) Reeves.
Mary Reeves Bell commented: “I was born on the prairies of Colorado and grew up in a farming and ranching family. From my earliest memories, it was a wonderful place to be. My father raised wheat and beef cattle; my mother was his partner. Ranching is a family business: my older sister and brother got the most interesting jobs and as the youngest I was the original ‘gofer.’ My childhood is filled with memories from the tedious - gathering the eggs - to the exquisite - being first to find a newborn colt. We moved to Wyoming when I was twelve and the dry Colorado plains were exchanged for vast sagebrush-covered pastures where my father ran cattle on land leased from the Wind River Indian Reservation."

Connections
Mary Bell, firstly, married Eugene Vogel (deceased). Then she married David Bell (a chief financial officer) on December 25, 1976. They has 3 children: Eugene Constantine, Robert D., Wesley J.
“Our family includes three wonderful boys and two wonderful grandchildren. My husband, David, and 1 live in suburban Washington, D.C., but are always looking for the ‘perfect farm’ in rural Virginia. We spend most of our summers in Wyoming at the ranch, where we hike, hunt rattlesnakes, and have ‘recreational discussions’ with the extended family. We never had television growing up; my father said we should read books instead, so we did. The tradition of intellectual discourse in the evenings while we watch the buttes change colors is being passed on to the next generation.”
