I knew all the "Hennessey's" I lived next door to them all of my child life. Mary-Jane was always good to me in her own special ways I remember they had me over Christmas Eves and Roger would dress up like santa and little Roger and I would wait and Mary-Jane would send us looking in the back yard and in the front door there would be santa! It is a wonderful thing that she did for me every year she could I'll never forget her for it. I feel she has gone home to be with her guys I'll miss her wonderful laugh and smile but be thankful she was a part of my youth. Regards to all who love and miss her. Sandy Ostuni- Kromm

I knew Mary Jane on a professional basis when I worked in the Town of Babylon's assessment department. We shared many good times at various assessors' luncheons over the years. My sincerest sympathy on behalf of a warm, friendly lady.
