To "JD" and the entire Davis family, I send my deepest regrets on the passing of Mrs. Mary. I met her years ago when "JD" was in the AROTC program at NSU. I do feel your pain but know that God is with you and is on duty 24-7; call on Him and He'll be there. My family will continue to lift you up in Prayer.

To the Davis Family, I'd like to offer my sincerest condolences for the passing of your mother, wife and my dear friend, Mary L. davis. She was a true friend in more ways than others can imagine. One could say that she was the person who one could go to and bear all and she'd not be judgmental but would sit and listen before offering kind words. Know that I'm with you today and each day afterwards for ties with families cannot be broken. To close, I'd like to offer this poem:
God's Garden
God looked around his garden and found an empty place.
He then looked down upon the earth and saw Mary's tired face.
He put His arms around her, and lifted her to rest.
God's garden must be beautiful, He always takes the best.
He knew that she was suffering, He knew she was in pain.
He knew that she would never, get well on earth again.
He saw the road was getting rough, and the hill was hard to climb,
So He closed her weary eyelids, and whispered, "Peace be thine."
It broke your hearts to lose her, but she didn't go alone,
For part of us all went with her, the day God called her Home.
