I can't believe 9 years have passed. Marie was so much fun to talk with. She had almost no filter (good or bad). She was great at making me laugh and while feisty was super fun to hang out with. She is missed.

I just read about her death in the Sacred Heart newsletter. I was so sorry to hear about it. She was a year ahead of me, and I always admired her. We lived in The Barry Apartments quite near her beautiful home. I am not sure but, I think I might have baby sat for one of her siblings (?)
May her memory be eternal

Marie was witty and had a great wry humor. I met Marie as a volunteer through St. Joseph's. We spent a few hours every few weeks chatting. Marie was one of a kind and added a lot to my life. I am glad to have known her.

I had known Mary for a long time - from our days at 6250 Sheridan Road through Barat College. My prayers and sympathy to her friends and family.

Memories of Mary's readiness to recommend a good book and she read many. We had a friendship that began in grade school and was renewed with each meeting. Peace and love to all who loved her.
