Liz, Anne & Jay,
It is very unfortunate the passing of your Dear Mother.
I had the good fortune of meeting Mary at one of Gloria's parties and found her to be such a special lady.
I know Mary will be missed and I will always remember her endearing disposition and good nature.
Yesterday, I lit a candle at my church to wish her good travels in her new journey. May Your Mother rest in Peace!
