Mary & Carl were wonderful neighbors for 25 years. She was a delightful fun loving good natured lady. We took care of each others critters. Carl was a trip guru & we went on a few trips. I still miss Mary & Carl and those good & peaceful years!

Mary Shutta was a very special person and was very dear to my mother, Peggy Jelly. My mom was so pleased to be able to keep in touch with Mrs. Shutta after moving from Sunrise. She will be missed, our thoughts are with the family.

With her warm smile and kind heart, Mary Shutta befriended many residents at Sunrise Senior Living, among them my late mom Nira Giddings. Mary was a faithful member of the weekly Catholic Communion Service and monthly Mass. She will be remembered fondly. Eternal rest grant unto her, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon her. And may the consolation of God's love be with her family.
