Not sure what to say?

Mary was truly dedicated to caring for seniors. As mentioned by others in these beautiful tributes in the guestbook, she continually found ways to be helpful, kind, compassionate and a friend to each resident our community. Mary exemplified everything our family tried to convey to our staff. She was a great teacher and mentor throughout Attleboro, from the Village to The Brunswick to the Rehab Center. There seemed to be no greater joy for her than to lend a hand in caring for our residents....

I loved Mary, the greatest mentor in my professional career, I appreciate and was honored to be her friend, she was brilliant and funny. Mary will be missed and i’ll hold her in my heart forever. Sending love and healing to her family and friends.

Kind, clever, and caring to those for whose lives she was responsible and to those who worked with her. The world is less for her passing.

Mary was so very caring, compassionate, wise, funny, loving and so much more. I am honored and extremely lucky to have had her as my sister. She will be forever in my heart and soul. Life without you is a little scary, Mar. Please continue to guide me. God speed and thank you. xoxoxoxoxoxo

I worked with Mary for several years. She was indeed a very special person. Admired, respectful, trusted, appreciated are words that come to mind. My sincere sympathy to her family. I am grateful to have known her.

Mary was a great caring person who helped me when I needed it. She will be missed.

I am grateful for having all of you as my “family” too. Although, I may be crying right now; I am also remembering one of the closest families who welcomed me as one of their own. I guess that was a thank you for taking Jane in when your house crashed in half. I love you all! Sending prayers, hugs and ☮

Mary was my dear friend for many years. She had an infectious laugh and so when we working, we frequently laughed together. Some times the hilarity could have been considered inappropriate but it was always joyful. Thank you, Mary, for many wonderful memories.
