Not sure what to say?

I knew Mary in grade school and remember her as a very sweet girl. She had a warm smile and was nice to everyone. Rest in peace, Mary.

Catherine and I mourn Mary's passing. She was a thoroughly delightful, cultured and mannered soul. I always felt cheered after speaking with her. We spent a memorable evening with her and Tripp at the "barn" for a delicious meal back in the 1990s. She will be missed by us and all in the IHP community. May flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.

Mary provided a moment in my life that I tucked in my heart and have treasured for 25 years. When I turned 40, my life was not particularly easy. I had attended a meeting at Mary and Tripp's house and afterward,she surprised me with a cake and such kind words. It touched my heart in a way that has brightened my life since. In this life, most of us will not leave a monument beyond the way we have touched the lives of others. Mary will always shine bright in my life.

Mary was the quintessential classy lady and paramount hostess. She lifted and brightened everyone by her presence. Now gone to join Tripp on the wings of the "O, Western Wind"!

My condolences are extended as you mourn the loss of your dear loved one. May you find comfort and strength to cope during this trying time. (Psalm 90:10)

Mary was a beautiful woman inside and out and I am so sorry to hear this news. She was my Godmother and I have kept the statue of the Sacred Heart she gave me at my Baptism on my bedroom dresser everywhere I have lived. I see it every morning and think of her. She will always hold a special place in my heart. Alex and John, you are in our prayers.

I am so sorry for your loss. God gives us a hope of being reunited with our loved ones again. My thoughts are with you and your family during this difficult time.
