Not sure what to say?

I have very fond memories of Aunt Mary, she never missed a Christmas card when we where little, when we would go to the farm to see her , she was so sweet to us kids. As I got older and would go visit her from time to time, it was like time stayed still. Thank you Sharon and Ken for all you done for Aunt Mary! RIH Aunt Mary.

I worked with Mary and her sister Margie, at Unell in Port Hope for several years.
Mary was a very special lady. They don't make them any better then Mary.
Heaven got another Angel. Fly high Mary till we meet again ❤❤
