Not sure what to say?

To the Frederick family,
I'm so sorry to hear of Mary's passing. I knew her through coaching at Salisbury and from my daughter's field hockey at S.L. She was a wonderful lady.

On behalf of the COB Team, we wish to extend our deepest sympathies to Mary's family. Mary was a part of the Team since the beginning and her absence will be felt deeply. She was a confident and strong person and a valued member of the Team who had a deep commitment to COB. We will all miss her immensely.

When I was young, she was Aunt Mary, my mother's sister. As an adult, she was just Mary, my friend.

That changed when I arrived in 1939 as the first Young grandchild. I think Mary hated me. She must have gotten over it, though, because when I started school, she, also going to school, always watched over me at the bus stop....

I got to know Mary when she came in to work for SLSD as a bus driver. Unbeknownst to me she was a distant relative of my husband, but before I knew that she impressed me as a very out spoken and matter of fact person. She was a strong woman who preserved the challenge of breast cancer and a beat it. After I left the bus co.and worked at the SL middle school she always would stop the bus after loading up the middle school students if I was out directing traffic would open the window and...

Mary was my daughters bus driver when they went to elementary school,always cared for all the students on her bus very much.I got the pleasure of meeting up with Mary again when my daughter played softball and field hockey,she was always very supportive and she was a great lady,wonderful driver and she will be missed.

She will be missed by everyone! She gave so much and asked so little!
