I loved Mary and spent much time with her. Recently, I came across pictures of us in Paris celebrating her birthday (60). We had a lot of fun. She came to every party I ever had. I have an 8x10 laminated picture on a wall. I will never forget her.

Saddened to hear of Mary's passing. We were neighbors from 1976-1978 and remained fast friends despite my move to Los Angeles in 1980. We had some memorable times together including the blizzard of '77! Condolences to you all Paul and kids.

I am so saddened to learn of Mary's passing. I hope she is now out of so much pain that she endured. My thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends at this difficult time. She was a wonderful, fun person who loved to laugh, and loved her family as well as her friends. Peace be with you, Mary. We will miss you forever.

Rest In Peace Mary. I worked with Mary for a few years in the mid 80s and we quickly became friends. She was such a genuinely sweet person.
