I am sorry to hear of Mary's passing and pray for the Allshouse Russell families. Mary and I were friends in high school and she also worked with my sister Joanne at Iverson Mall. We had great fun together. I will always remember Mary fondly and know that she lives on in the hearts of those who knew and loved her.
