Recollections & Sympathy For the Family

Mary’s family, I am so sorry for your loss of such a sweet and special lady. I met Mary through the church bazaar many, many years ago. She was always trying to recruit me to be her co chair person. I finally gave in and now head up the Food Fare table and continue Mary’s tradition of making the meat pies. She’s a hard act to follow. Everyone loved Mary. Peace and love

I am so sorry to hear of Mary's passing. Imagine, though 102. She was pretty sharp when she went to bingo. I couldn't believe she was that age. She was such a darling. I just loved her. Lee Jette
