Mary, I lit some candles the other day for you and Alfred. I think of you both daily. I miss going over to your home to visit.

My dear baby sister Mary, I miss you so much sweet girl! You left us too soon and I miss seeing you and hearing your beautiful laugh. You were always there for me when Larry passed and all your visits were so cherished. God bless you for being my beautiful sister. I still talk to you every morning and evening. Until we see each other again, I love you. Rosey

We had the privilege of volunteering with Mary and her students after school for several years. She truly cared for her students and was kind and patient. We send heartfelt condolences to her family. We will hold her and her husband in our prayers.

My dear sweet baby sister, how badly we miss you. You were such a light in this world and so many in the family depended on you. Our hearts are broken and we want you to know that you were our treasure that we had for too short a time. Every memory of you is precious and we know you are with your dear husband Al. Oh how you loved your family and did everything for them. You will always be in our hearts my dear baby girl. I love you so very much.

Mary was an excellent cook, learning how to cook whatever Freddie loved. She would make homemade sees candy. Mary was dedicated to her family. Our Ortiz family loved Mary & are by heartbroken by these unforseen circumstances. May God bless her family & comfort them.

I had the honor of working with Mary for three years. Her love for her family and the patience and dedication she showed every day to our students was demonstrated every day. Her kindness and sweet spirit will be truly missed.

Mary was an amazing person! She was a giving soul, who put everyone else's needs before her own. She was a steady support in the classroom and her students loved her! I am so blessed to have known her for 24 years! RIP Mary! You will be missed!!! I hope you and Fred are getting to hang out with our friend Liz once again!
