Mary left a great legacy with her family. All that was good in her can be seen in people they are and will become. I will truly miss her, but I know she’s in a happy place, with a never ending Chinese buffet.

I have known Mary for over 15 years. I considered her a good friend. She will be sorely missed by me and many others who loved her. I pray that we will all feel the comforting Spirit’s consoling arms enfolding us as we grieve her loss.
