Mary will be missed at north City Market, she was nice to visit with.

My condolences to the family of Mary Gaines! I used to take care of her special orders at North City Market, and became friends from all the years of her shopping at our store. I always looked forward to seeing her, and visiting with her. She always had a smile, and a sweet hello! I will always cherish the friendship we had!

Always enjoyed visiting with Mary while working at north city market...sorry for your loss...Deb Warner
