Not sure what to say?

I remember Mary Pratt as a basketball referee when I was playing at Norwell High School, MA back in 1957-1961. When I saw Mary come into the gym in her stripped referee uniform, I knew the game would be called very fairly and efficiently. She'd let me know quickly and quietly during a game sometimes, if I was getting into foul problems! My coach was Mrs. Mary Knapp who I believe graduated with Mary P. from BU in 1943.
Thank you for all you did for the girls.

Well done, Mary!

I have great memories of Mary! She was one of my Aunt Ginny's best friends and they often took me and my sisters to the beach and set up Olympic courses and let us win medals. She was a great story teller and I treasure the signed baseball card she gave me the last time I saw her. RIP ❤

Mary was an inspiration to all that knew her. I am proud to say Mary was a friend and teaching colleague of mine in the Quincy Public Schools.I enjoyed her quick wit and infectious smile. Her life was a home run.
Rest in peace Mary.

Sympathy for the family on the loss of Mary Pratt. A great lady of class and inspiration to us all. She's now the starting pitcher for the Angels in Heaven.

I'm very sorry for the loss of Ms. Pratt. I was her letter carrier when she lived on Quincy Shore Drive, we had many many chats and boy could she tell a story! What a life!

Many years ago I had the pleasure of speaking with Mary by phone. Maddy English who played for the Racine Belles was my former gym teacher in the 60s and a dear friend.
Maddy would tell me all about the AAGPBL reunions. After one reunion, she surprised me with the AAGPBL watch and a baseball autographed by Mary and others.
They are probably throwing the ball around again.
May Mary rest in peace with the angels in Heaven.
God Bless you.
