Jessie and Rae,
I'm so sorry about the loss of your mom, words cannot even express how sorry I am. Your mom was like a second mom to me for so long, when I used to stay at your house for days on end. You guys are in my prayers.

I met Mary through Girl Scouts many years ago, we were the girl scout neighborhood's co-cookie manager for a few years and I just loved working with her. Mary is one that you always looked forward to spending time with, she could make anyone laugh.
I will sorely miss her.

To Mary's family,
I'm so sorry for your loss. I first met Mary in 1975, on my first bowling league at "The Lanes". I have been involved with the musicals at Holland since 1996, so Mary and I got reacquainted then. Mary will be missed by many, forgotten by none.
My sincere condolences,

To all of Mary's family,
I'm so sorry for your loss. I met Mary in Fall of 1975, on my first bowling league at "The Lanes". (I also graduated with Don from EA in 1970). As fate would have it, I've been doing the musicals at Holland since 1996, so Mary and I got reacquainted then. Mary will be missed by many, but forgotten by none. My sincere condolences.

My sincerest thoughts and prayers to the Owens family. Mary had a gift of bringing joy wherever she went, and I feel so grateful to have gotten the chance to work one last horseshow with her this summer. She was a wonderful woman, mother, and friend. God is very blessed to have her closer to him.

We are so sorry to hear about your Mother. She was a wonderful person who loved her family dearly. She was one of our favorite customers at the tree farm and she will always be in our prayers. We will always remember those holiday seasons when she brought the 2 of you & we chatted & sipped hot chocolate together.

It amazes me still that God always takes the best ones to be his angels. I know that my Aunt will always be looking down and smiling while she watches over me and my family. It is still a feeling that is hard to describe, you never really want to loose anyone you care about but sometimes its for the best. I know shes no longer suffering and for that I am thankful. I have said it many times I will always love you and never forget you. Aunt Mary your in my heart for life. Much love

I would just like to thank everyone for their thoughts and prayers in honor of my Mom. She was an amazing person and will be very greatly missed. God must have needed anouther angel because we all know that she was one anyways, so he must be needing a little help. But, thank you again for all of your thoughts and prayers.

I knew Mary for many years at Fisher-Price. She always had a smile and great energy, someone you would love to see because she made you feel good.
Hopefully, the good Lord willing, I will get to see that smile again someday.

My deepest sympathy goes to Mary's family. She was a volunteer 4-H leader for many years - and was someone I could chat with like an old friend. She knew my Dad through Fisher Price and was so kind when he passed away. She always was so bright and cheery and positive. She will be missed.
