Mary was a kind and religious lady, she was a tremendous person and as a career Navy wife handled all situations great.
Mona and Frani were a light in her eyes. Jesus will be happy to bring her
home.

Mary was an extraordinarily generous and kind woman. She was such a help to me and my newborn son when I was young and dumb, and in great need of her love and laughter. My sympathy goes out to her two darlings, Mona and Fran, who, like their mom, meant more to me than they may ever realize. Love, Mary Alice

Mary was a very generous and loving woman, kind hearted and helpful to her toes! She took care of me and my newborn, Greg, when I was young and dumb, in need of love and kindness. I am forever in her debt, as well as her darlings, Mona and Fran, who, like their Mom, meant more to me than they may ever realize. Love Mary Alice
