I got to know the late Mary Jane Perman as a fellow parishioner at National Presbyterian Church here in Washington, DC in the fall of 2012 when I joined the church. Mary and I were in Bible classes together in Sunday school. She served alongside me as a volunteer in the church library. She was a kind, gentle lady. Rest in peace, Mary.
