I have know Mary for many years and just loved being in her company. And Mary apparently has known me ever since I was a very young girl. Very good friends of my parents, Frank & Adeline Fisher, I will always remember her at the bowling alley and at Bangor Lodge. She will be sadly missed. My heart goes out to all of you.

There's magic in a Mother's touch, and sunshine in her smile.
There's love in everything she does to make our lives worthwhile. We can find both hope and courage just by looking in her eyes. Her laughter is a source of joy, her works are warm and wise. There is a kindness and compassion to be found in her embrace, and we see the light of heaven shining from a Mother's face.

Mary's zest for life was surely inspirational. I was never in Mary's presence without her having a smile and a kind word. One of my fondest memories was sitting around her diningroom table getting in on a spirited game of euchre with Mary and her friends. She was a shark. I could not have asked for a better neighbor and I'm sure she will be missed by everybody who has ever had the pleasure her company.

Our sincerest condolences to your family. "Mrs. Pollinger" (as I still referred to her after 40+ years of knowing her) was an inspiration to all of us to be involved, always have something or someone to look forward to every day and that you can never have too many friends! She knew how to live life with joy and the joy she brought to others will be dearly missed.
