Dear Family..I was so sorry to hear the news. She was such a wonderful person. She took me under her wing when I worked at the hospital with her.

I am so sorry I did not know in time to be there to pay my respects to such a wonderful and classy lady. She was the best. I know that she will be greatly missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. ...

My name is Vicky Jordan, and I am a palliative care volunteer, at
the hospital where Mary was, recently. We had a very nice visit,
and I was impressed by this strong, loving woman. Even as ill
as she was, we shared many good laughs together on the antics
of my farm animals. A special lady.

Mary K was such a gracious lady. I shall always remember her beautiful smile. Peace Be With You.
