Dearest Elaine, Marilyn, Karen, Linda and family: I am so sorry to learn of Great Aunt Mary's passing. She was such a neat lady and will be greatly missed. I loved her stories and can still hear her singing now. I am looking at a picture of her and my Grandma Loretta from several years ago. She is in good company now. Love, Colleen
