I can't believe it's been a year. I hope you have been enjoying your time with Elvis and Lucy. I came across some pictures of you the other week. Oh how I miss seeing that beautiful smile. Miss coming into your room singing my song to you. Until we meet again. I'll always love you my sweet Mary. Continued prayers for your incredible family.

We were very saddened to hear about the loss of a daughter, sister, and my cousin, Mary. She will live in our hearts forever, and we will forever be reminded of her happy personality and beaming smile. She was an inspiration to all of us in the way she met her many life challenges. Those who were close to her should take great comfort knowing that Mary always received the love and support of her family. Our thoughts and prayers were with you this week as you celebrated Mary's life and will be with you in the coming days as you adjust to life without her. We will cherish the memories and life lessons Mary taught us. She is now at peace. Our sympathy and love to all.
