Its hard to believe that a year ago today was Mary's funeral.
Mary, you are greatly missed. It was wonderful to have Mark and the girls here on the Easter weekend...its not the same without you though. Pat Lori and Anna were here too...your presence was with us in our hearts.
I think of you every day and see your bright light in all that I do. I raise your memory in conversations, and at all celebrations your presence is felt.
Your vibrant spirit is like a guiding light and support to me.
I feel a special bridge of love to heaven, through you, and that brings me peace of mind.
You are forever in my heart.
Love and thoughts, your sister, Patricia.

Our dear Mary. We miss you so much especially at this time of year. You would call and tell us you had set up Alphredaville and were sitting with candles burning, thinking of past Christmases. We love you so much. Please pray for us until we meet again. With love & Prayers, Dad & Mom

The Christmas season approaches and I know that Christmas will never be the same again, without the company of my fun-loving, supportive, warm and caring sister, Mary. She had a heart so loving and a nature so kind and giving....she was an inspiration to me(and continues to be) and to so many. I count my blessings, as Mary taught me to, and am grateful to have such beautiful memories of my dear sister. Although it is painful to be separated from you, Mary, I will forever carry you in my heart, until we meet again in our heavenly home.
I think of Mark and Courtney and Kirsten with love and thoughts, and look forward to spending Christmas with you..and other family members. Mary will be here with us, in spirit...maybe we'll even hear echoes of her infectious laughter!!
Love and thoughts
sisters forever

It's been 6 months and I still miss you so much Mary. Every day I thinks of you and wish I could talk with you and get your advise. Blizzard and Angel still look for you to greet them at the door. Every once in a while, Blizzard sits by the door where you went out. I think she is waiting for you to come home. I wish you could.
Love you sweetheart.
Always yours, Mark

What a beautiful memorial mass yesterday, at Our Lady or Lourdes! My thoughts and prayers are with the Beggan family, who I grew up with and knew from Holy Name school and parish! Mary will not be forgotten and it is evident that she has touched many peoples lives during her short stay on earth! Rest in peace Mary. I was glad to have known you!

Mark, when Patricia told me of Mary's passing I was deeply saddened. Please accept my deepest sympathies to you, your daughters, and Mary's parents and siblings. I'll always remember Mary as a warm, friendly, and sincere person who was so easy to talk to. The candle is truly symbolic of her white spirit and warm heart. All my memories of Mary and you are fond ones. I'll keep you and your loved ones in my prayers.

The world is a little quieter now without Mary's laughter in it. My heart goes out to you Mark and your lovely daughters as well as all the Beggan and Plewes families. Family was always so very important to Mary. As her sorority sisters are now hearing of the very sad news know that we are all grieving with you. There will be lots of tears right now but also know that there will be many, many fond memories that will be filled with warmth and laughter.
Love in IIKE

My deepest sympathies to Mark and Mary's daughters and the Beggan/Plewes family. I will always remember Mary with much delight and laughter. We had so much fun together in our years in the sorority house and during our early married years. It is my tragedy that we did not stay in touch over the years. Love in IIKE

I'm so sorry to hear about Mary's passing. Although I only had the privilege of meeting her once, she had made a lasting impression of kindness and caring. My thoughts go out to her family.

To Our Mary
On April 21st of two thousand and ten
In the beautiful spring of the year
Our Mary chose to be healed and to fly
Back home where it all began.
Mary was loaned for us to raise and to love
But only for a short period of time,
Yet in that 54 years or so
She lived a lifetime sublime.
Mary has faced each challenging task
With wisdom, with ease and with grace.
Those who met her, were blessed by her charm
And felt comfort in her loving embrace.
Mary inspired all those she encountered,
She made them feel so worthy.
We seemed to gain strength from her generous heart
And see angels in those less sturdy.
To say Goodbye was so heart wrenching
To let go of this wonderful Treasure,
But Mary's spirit is with us still,
Her influence is without measure.
So, go Sweet Spirit and guide us all
On our way to Our Divine Maker.
We thank you for your brief time spent
To make our poor world greater.
Love, Dad & Mom Beggan

To the Beggan clan whom I spent many good times with the family as a young girl and teenager. Mary was one of the nicest, most cheerful and outgoing person I have ever met. It is with such sorrow that she has left everyone that loves her much too early. She has touched the lives of many and will truly be missed! My deepest sympathy to Mark, her girls and all of the family. Mary's friend Colleen

Mark, Courtney, Kirsten,
I will always remember Mary as she beamed with confidence and beauty, 'strutting her stuff' down the fashion runway during a recent Wellspring Fund Raiser event. Her ray of sunhine will never be forgotten.
Heartfelt sympathy and love, Mary's friend, Vas.

It's with great sadness that I learned of Mary's passing. She was an absolute delight to work with and always displayed an incredibly positive attitude. She will certainly be missed by all who knew her.
Please accept my sincere condolences.

To the Plews family, What a fitting tribute to your wife, mother, to see the church overflowing and parking down local streets. A wonderful service, and show of respect and admiration for Mary, who was a shining example of how to live to all of us.
Please know you are all in our thoughts and prayers.

Our deepest sympathy to Pat and Mabel, and their family as well to Mary's husband Mark and her girls Courtney and Kristen. You are all in our thoughts and prayers.

She will always have a special place in my heart and when I think of her it will always be with a prayer and a smile. Please be assured of our continued thoughts and prayers.

Plewes family,
My sincere condolences for your loss. Your mother was a remarkable woman and we are all so lucky to have had her influence in our lives. Girls, you are directly following in her footsteps and you are both becoming beautiful young women, just as she was.
Love to you all,

Courtney and Kirsten, I didn't know your mother very well but the few times I met her, I thought she was a lovely person. Both of you babysat my boys when we first moved to the neighbourhood and lived across the street from you. I know what it is like to lose a mother to cancer, as that is how I lost mine. My deepest sympathy and thoughts are with you and your family today.

Mary,
You have left us much too soon. It was comforting being at your house sharing stories and positive thoughts. We always joked about our first encounter in Qui Gong class. I felt everyone was old except for me but then a beautiful blonde with the most incredible blue eyes smiled at me. A very special group came to be. When I was feeling down in Dec. about losing a friend, you told me not to be sad because she was free now and at peace. We will miss you Mary but I know you will always be with us.
Love you.

I never knew Mrs. Mary Plewes. I do however know her daughter Kirsten. She has raised an incredible daughter, and as they say, daughters are the epitome of their mothers. Mrs. Plewes' strength and love are to be cherished and remembered forever. You are a true angel Mrs. Plewes, I know you will watch over your family. I only wish i had a chance to meet you and experience all your amazing qualities. May God bless you and your family. I promise to always be there for your family. Rest in peace and paradise.

We all learned so much from Mary. She was such a loving, caring, compassionate and passionate person. Always thinking of everyone around her, she maintained such a positive attitude and unwavering faith. She was an inspiration to all. I feel so blessed to have had such a special friend in my life. Years ago as a newcomer to Mississauga, Mary made me feel so welcome and our friendship was instantaneous. I will miss her words of wisdom and her amazing sense of humour.
Her love for Mark, Courtney and Kirsten shone through. She was so proud of her girls! May you be comforted knowing she is watching over you. God bless you and give you strength at this difficult time.
She was a gift to so many.
We love you Mary

"Love one another as I have loved you." John15:12 Mary's tenacity to live this and face the journey's challenges will remain our inspiration. How blessed was I to be a roomie of the Beggan gals and then be included in the bond of sisterhood, friendship and family ties over many years. Our most recent get together will be a part of those cherished memories.
Dearest Mark, Courtney, Kirsten and family, we share in your loss.
Our Mary is one of those special people who are like the beautiful flowers in the garden of life. We're eternally grateful to have known. Love and friendship always,

Dear Mark, Courtney, Kirsten & the entire family:
I feel so priviledged to be able to call Mary a friend. This friendship was a gift to me and one that I will always treasure. Being in her presence was an amazing experience - her positive attitude could not help but rub off on you no matter what. Her gentle guiding way, her supportive nature and her love of family ~ all traits that made her the magnificent person that she was.
I have had many "conversations with God" over the past 4 weeks and I know that Mary has been "gathered in" and has gone directly to heaven. She is an angel to me & I know that her spirit will live on and on.
My prayers are for all of her family at this time.
I loved you, Miss Mary........

Mark, Courtney and Kirsten - I feel so privileged to have met Mary through my sister and Patrick so many years ago. Watching your family grow and sharing laughs around the pool over drinks was a memory that I will always keep. Through updates from my sister and the times we shared a visit, I feel so fortunate to have met Mary and known such a special woman, Mother, wife and friend to our family. My deepest condolences to the entire Beggan Family...she will be so missed! Michele, Pete, Brandon and Carter xo

My dearest Mary,
I will miss you greatly. You were always there with words of encouragement, first to share the laugther and fun with. You were a true example of being strong. I know you are now in a better place and perhaps even keeping company with my sister, Rita. Rest in peace my dearest friend, Mary.

Her memory will always be with us, and her spirit will live forever in our hearts. The only support we have is in knowing that for her there will be no more pain and suffering.

My Dear Sweet Mary
How we will miss you.
Your constant loving, generous, and caring personality always shone through,
You were indeed an Angel of God having a human experience.
I love you more than words can say.
It was my pleasure to spend 14 nights with you in the hospital. It was a real testament to you to see how all the nurses, doctors and even the cleaning staff loved you. You touched so many, so quickly.
You were a gift to us all.
It was an honour to know you.
Love your sister Dianne

Mary was an angel disguised as a friend, wife, mother, and an incredible human, and I just know with all my heart that she is now an angel above us all sending hugs to you in any way she can.
With all my love Melanie
