I have known Mary since I was 15 years old and started dating her nephew. We have been married for 42 years and Mary and her family have been a very big part of our family. She was a very special lady and I will miss her more than words can say. I will always remember our last trip to Oklahoma for your 80th birthday. God speed Mary, we love you.

Mary Jo & I were best friends for many years. We worked together at Bell Helicopter. About a year after her retirement & move to Phoenix, I lost track of her. I am so sorry to hear of her death. I loved her & have thought of her often. She was a "wonderful" lady.
