To Mary's family, I was shocked to see this in the paper. Mary was truly an angel and such a wonderful woman. I worked with her at IBM and she was always so helpful and I remember all our talks - her giving me advice about my children. I am so sorry to hear this news! My prayers are with you at this difficult time. Mary will not be forgotten. With deepest sympathy, Pam Cerniglia
