Mary Bird Howser Case

Mary was a wonderful, kind, caring , person. She kept in touch with me after I left Portland, and I miss talking to her now that she is gone-but not forgotten. Her friend Diana Foraci

Mary I will truly miss our conversations we had together about past and present experiences. My sincere sorrow to the boys that were close to their mom I know your hearts are heavy with your loss . Diana Catherine Foraci

I met Mrs C almost a decade ago. We got up to a few capers in our time. We always had fun together. I brought her DVDs from the library almost every week for almost 5 years. She only had used VHS and had trepidation converting to DVD. I found the prefect movie to entice her. Then, she was hooked. She had a couple of false starts, but actually learned the new technology and embraced it too.

A lovely lady has passed and is missed. I can only hope I run into here again. I've cried...

Remembering Mary brings many fond memories of my childhood shared with your family. Wish you peace and love in your time of loss.

Dear Cousins, Please find strength in each other and the sweet memories of her. Ed Fich (Reston, VA)

What an interesting mother you had. I so enjoyed my time with her while compiling her cookbook and hearing the many stories that the cookbook evoked. She had also decided to write a few stories for her granddaughter - we got started on it

Collette and family...may your mother rest in peace. Her strength and determination were a marvel. I'm glad God granted her wish about falling asleep. Blessings.
