Mary was one of the most giving people I knew. Because of her I was able to take trips and see things I had always wanted to see; I'll always be grateful. And, she was always grateful for any small thing you did for her. She was a brave and great lady who had much to teach us by her example and I will miss her as will her family, who took such good care of her.

To Mary's family--Please accept my deepest sympathies on your loss. I knew Mary from back when she worked in the Tupperware office. I liked her a great deal. She was never one to put up with anything from anybody. LOL Please know that you have my deepest sympathies, and I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

Sharon, Robert and Family, our thoughts and prayers are with you during this time of sorrow. I have many memories of your mother and that wonderful Aunt of mine going back to 1960 when you had to share the back seat of the 57 chevy wagon with me as we came from Newfoundland to the USA and my most recent visit with her in 2009. Picture attached. God Bless Aunt Mary, May you rest in peace.
