Mrs. Mary is very well missed. I'm still singing my scripture songs at the age of 51. Mrs. Mary taught me. My siblings and friends so much as a child at Christian Ministries. She is so missed.

To be Absent from the Body is to be Present with the Lord. We all know Ms. Mary truly loved the Lord and is in Heaven dancing and rejoicing. She was truly giving of herself and loved to sing and teach bible scriptures to the Children. She was truly a blessing and will be missed. Will continue to keep in prayer the family, loved ones and friends.

What a pleasure it is to say that my childhood was wonderful due in part to the Love and Support I received from Miss Mary Blore. She was a wonderful woman of GOD and it showed in everything that she did for her church family, the community, and beyond. It is with fond memories that I will always remember Miss Mary. Her songs of praise will remain with me forever (my children have also learned her scripture songs) What a joyous days it was for her, "when the Gospel Bus [beeped beeped] right at her door!!"

My heartfelt sympathy to the family. Mary was one of my favorite ladies when she was at Curtis Manor. I played piano, and sang there, and she was my biggest fan. She loved it when we sang the "Jesus" songs. Oh Mary - I will always misss you. You were such a special person and such a Christian lady.

Our hearts are saddened by the loss of this dear and precious saint of the Lord. We were so priviledged to have gotten to know "Aunt Mary".
