Thank you Aunt Mary for your sweetness to our family and your kindness toward those animals you loved so much.  I want to thank you for always taking time to drop a note over the years to let me know you were thinking of me in bad and good times.  It meant a lot as did all the thought and love you put into choosing books for my kids every Xmas.  Love you and miss you.

I worked with Mary as a nurse and Case Manager. She has written letters of recommendations for me. I thank her for that. She was a bright light in sometimes a dark world. She saw the good things in people. She was full of smiles and good wishes. She loved animals as I do. This world is just a little less bright with her passing. I am in tears thinking about her not being here with us. Love

My condolences to all of Mary's loved ones. I have vivid memories of our days as young cousins playing at Ben and Frances's home. I am saddened by Mary's passing. Her beauty and gentleness shines through in her photos. My love, thoughts and prayers to all...
Cousin Sandy and family.

As the weeks have passed by since Mary's tragic passing, I have thought and thought about what to write here.  I'm usually fairly good at this sort of thing, but now I have no words that truly can convey my sadness for all of Mary's loved ones.  I never, not once, saw her angry or not smiling. She was a kind and gentle soul and the she will be missed terribly.
