I will never forget the lunch we shared with Mary at the nursing home. Your lasting friendship with Mary Porter inspires me daily. Thank you for introducing me to her. She was beautiful and had a great sense of humor. Tina Secreast

A friend just let me know about Mary. I didn't know where she was after she left her apartment and my cards were returned. She was so special to my mom (Opal Robertson) and to me. My daughter Mary Beth was born on her birthday and named for her. We spent many good times together at her home and on vacations. I know how much you meant to her and her to you.
Love and prayers

Ms. Boyd,
I was so sorry to hear about Mrs. Porter. She was such a very special lady and it was always a bright spot in our day when she came to the office. Her spunk and independence were delightful and inspirational. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers as you take this difficult journey of grief. May you feel the love of God wrapping His precious arms around you each day!
Love and prayers,
Diane Whitt (Dr. B's office)
