Mary was a very sweet, kind and generous individual. I enjoyed our visits together where we discussed the promising future under God's kingdom. She will certainly be missed but she can look forward to life in paradise in the very near future.

My prayers and thoughts are with the whole family. I am sorry for your loss may you find comfort in her memories and know you now have that special Angel watching over you. I am very saddened and heart broken to hear of her loss, I worked with Mary for just about a year at Kohls with her. She loved when she seen I was schedule to work with her she always knew I was there to help her. We shared snacks together, pictures of her family and grand children and I became a grandmother so we shared pictures of our grandkids together. She always gave me a hug and a kiss either when she was done and going home or it I was going home first. She was the kindest sweetest person you would ever meet. I am glad I had I the chance and opportunity to meet her and work with her and be her friend. Mary I will miss you so much its hurts when someone you came to love and looked forward to seeing and working with is gone, but Mary you will never be forgotten!!! Fly high my Beautiful friend until we meet again!! Love, Lori and Paul
