I just found out about Mary's passing. I worked with Frank back in the 70's. I met Mary for the first time at Frank's wake and kept in contact with her since then. She was one of the sweetest people I have ever known and I am truly sorry for your loss. You have our deepest sympathy. Tom and Linda Smentek, Orland Park, Illinois

Our deepest sympathies; we were saddened to hear of Mary's passing. My brother Charlie called with the sad news of my cousin's passing.
