Mary Jane was my most special friend. I shall always treasure the memories of our times together and we had some times! From Muzzies to Cherry Lane to 70th St Bruce and I spent many enjoyable hours with Earl and Mary Jane. They were a big part of our lives and I look back at those times with great affection. to Ros, Catherine, Beth and Mac: My heart goes out to all of you for your loss. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers. with love, Judy Taylor
