I have known Mary since I was 15,she was a one of a kind original.She spoke her mind,worked and lived her life with an honesty that is not found anymore.If you were her friend you had a diamond in the rough...and you knew it.I will miss her greatly.We shared a love of family,cooking,collecting cookbooks and laughing....lots of laughing.

She was so proud of her grandsons and her daughter Pam and her girls.

I have no doubt that she is in heaven giving directions as to how the clouds and stars need to be taken care of...and it will be the right way too.

God Bless you Mary,I will miss you.
