Mary was a very strong women, not to people could have gone through what she did through the years and remain strong. I always admired her for taking care of her husband and daughter the way she did. I remember going to her house with Deb and Phylis. I always felt welcomed and enjoyed being there. God has a wonderful angel with him now
