So sorry to know that Mary passed away. I feel like I have lost my second Mom. I will treasure the many memories that we shared over the years. Mary and Randy were the perfect couple and I am comforted in knowing that they are back in each others arms. Both of them were treasured friends and will be missed. They were both one of a kind. Carrie please accept my deepest sympathies. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Karen and Taylor Sipes.

Carrie,
I remember you and your mother from our days at Glendale Community College. Mary and I shared many conversations as she waited for you while you attended class. We laughed a lot!
I have often wondered over the years about you and your mother. I'm truly sad hearing of Mary's passing.
May cherished memories of your mother give you and your family strength and comfort, today, tomorrow and for the difficult times to come.
Peace, prayers & blessing from a friend who remembers.

I have only known Mary since 1994 when she and Randy came into my office to discuss insurance. We talked so long she left not only as a client, but as a friend. We enjoyed a great trust and friendship over the years since then and she will be dearly missed.
