Mary was a dear neighbor of ours in Concord and Lake Street neighbors miss her friendly and caring touch. She would always leave a bag of garden tomatoes on my porch every August...she kept a lovely garden and was a special neighbor.

Generosity, kindness, concern and love of others, there is no better way to describe such an amazing lady. Mary befriended my mom ( Helen Murray) at our family greenhouse in NH while she was likely buying some plants to plant for a friend of hers. My mom enjoyed many trips to " no where" as well as shopping for necessities with Mary. She was a lifeline out of the house indeed, and so VERY appreciated. Mary´s laughter and beautiful way of looking at life will always be remembered. My heartfelt condolences to John, her family and all who loved her.
