I thought the world of Mary! As did my husband. She was a breath of fresh air whenever I approached her desk at the Staff Entrance at the Musueum of Fine Arts in Boston. She was a dear dear woman! It never seemed the same without her beautiful smile there to greet me when I reported into work each day. So very sorry to learn of her passing. My heart goes out to all her loved ones.

Dear Joey,
I was so sorry to hear of your mothers passing. I shared such fond memories of her at the MFA. A day never went by that we didnt have a talk or share a good laugh. I know how much you will miss her.
My prayers & thoughts are with you and your family.
With deepest sympathy,
Toni Correale
