Mary Margaret was a dear friend to me for a very long time. We were mentors to each other at Delta State, co-workers at Region One Mental Health and Youth Services, but most of all, very close friends. The news of her passing has put me at a loss for words. Her enormous heart and love for life are what made her so incredibly special. She will be greatly missed.
