Mary was a beautiful person in so many respects. She was always a delight to be around and always made you feel important and welcome in her home. She had the most loving relationship with Stanley and now they are together again.
She will be missed.

On behalf of the members of Ikebana International San Diego Chapter 119, I would like to extend our condolence to the family of Mary Beth. She had been an enjoyable member of Ikebana International. Her enthusiasm and appreciation of the Japanese ikebana certainly was very refreshing. We will miss her. Cris Bugarin
