When I think of Mary I remember her laugh and her devotion to her husband, Johnny, and to her son Denny and family. I just returned from Fort Bragg and I know how much she loved being by the ocean. I'm so sorry I missed her service but I know she would forgive me. Please know my prayers and love are with the family of this very special woman. She is with her Johnny and her Lord and is at peace.

Mary was a prayer warrior for me..we prayed many times over the phone..I'll miss that..we enjoyed picking her up for many Sundays and taking her to church with us, than out to lunch..She loved playing cards and was very competitive...she talked about her family a lot...very precious to her...she is now right where she wantedto be..in the arms of Jesus..and with her Johnny..
