Mary was my mother-in-law since 1967. She was my friend first in the early 60's. In my younger years she helped me work through problems I had with my parents. We had many good years together, and fun going to thrift stores. She shared her secret recipes with me. But most of all, she gave me the awesome present of her Son, Steve, and loved me in her own special way. Every time she came to see us, she had something "old" from her early days to give me. Now I have many gifts of her memory in my house. I am happy that she is now where she has wanted to be for a long time...With her Dad, and other family members. God Bless you Mary.
Love Always...Jo
