I MISS MY MOMMA. I was so looking forward to living on the farm until I died as it was agreed since I took care of MOM until her last minute. I go to her grave all the time. Miss her & DAD so much.

I'm saddened to hear that Mary has passed on. I knew Mary for many years, as she knew my Dad, Kaye Larson and his family. I will always remember her when I see my butterfly magnet and wear my flag pin on the 4th of July. She was friendly and kind and loved to talk about many things. My sympathy to your family, and may you treasure your memories of Mary.
Take care and bless you, Karen (Larson) Williams

I was a caregiver for Mary and Mary and I had good times together. We would sing silly songs in the car and we had this ongoing joke. Mary grabbed the door handle once when we were driving and I said, "Mary you don't want to fall out of the car and bounce down the road on your bum". Mary found that humorous and everytime we were driving she would put her hand on the door handle so I would say the same thing. One time we went out to Birch Bay and took a nice lunch. Mary fed all (and I mean all) of her lunch to the seagulls. I will always remember Mary and she will always have a special place in my heart. Kathy Carlin

Grew up next to Mary and her children on Squalicum Mt.. Great lady and mother always helping with neighbor when where help was needed. The days of riding to the strawberry , raspberry or bean fields to work when we were kids. What great times. She will truly be missed. Mike Simplot Cle elum WA
