I atteneded school with Mary at St. Ann's and I will always remember her big smile. I am so sorry for your loss Regina. Remembering our 8th grade graduation party from St. Ann's at the Army hospital and dancing with Mary. What a smile. She was honestly one of the nicest people I have ever known. May you rest in peace Mary.
