Mary holds a special place in my heart. She is part of the Williams family memories. To this day she is present whenever I see a gladiola, a mum or a dandilion. She was a dear friend to our mother, Lucille. At times Mary and Lucille were tag-team mother's to Bridget and me during our formative years. My heart pours out to the family, each of you are so very special to me.
