Mary SADD born in 1821 in Little Glemham Suffolk - when did she die, please?

Mary is a sister of my ancestor Philip. Their parents are Jonathan and Sarah. I would attach a picture of their gravestone but don't seem to be able to reduce the size of it. Here is the transcription of it:

"In affectionate memory of
   JONATHAN SADD
   who died May 4th 1874 aged 84 years.
   Oh the sweet joy this sentence gives,
   I know that my redeemer lives.
   In affectionate memory of
   SARAH SADD
   who died February 7th 1852 aged 62 years.
   We part in hope to meet again.
   Erected by their daughter Mary Ann Dyball."

When I received a photograph of their gravestone a few years ago from a cousin, I started following the life story of Mary, and I have learned a lot about her and her family - that she married Amos Fletcher, that he died young, the names of her children and what happened to them, that she married John Dyball in 1856 in Deptford, that he was a wealthy man, and that, from his will, Mary would forfeit everything if she married again. His beneficiaries were Mary, his daughters, and two grandchildren. Mary's brother and sister-in-law George and Fanny Sadd were witnesses of the will.

What I cannot discover is when Mary died. The GRO indexes have been searched, but the registration is not there. I know that sometimes deaths have not been registered, having found at least one occurrence of that recently.

John died in 1885 at 1 Reginald Road, Deptford, also known as May Cottage; the informant was Caroline Smith, a sister of Mary. John and Mary were there in 1881. In 1891, John's daughter Elizabeth was there with her husband Samuel Rutherford and their children. Caroline was next door. Mary is nowhere to be seen, unless she is in Camberwell with the wrong age given.

Having posted about Mary on the Kent board, in case there are any descendants of John's reading that one,  I thought I would post here, too, in case anyone researching the Sadd family may be able to help.

In hope ...... :-)
