I worked with MaryLee at Greene Memorial. I loves her very much. She was a compassionate person who was doing the job she was meant to do. She had a calling, and she made a difference. Fly high MaryLee.

MaryLee was an inspiration to me as a Tech at GMH rehab unit. We had tea parties with popcorn and enjoyed her company that made work fun.
