Our deepest sympathy to the Sellwood family. Mary was a special person to us and we take comfort in knowing that she will now be reunited with Noble. Mary always brought a level of good ol' North Country observations to any conversation, she was a joy and left all with so many good memories. Love to you all, Barbara, Fernando, and all the Silva family.

In the 1930s, Ferris and Loretta Gordon raised two small tykes on Dewey Ave. in Bemidji, Minn. Ferris was the God Father of my oldest sister, Jeanne LaLonde and I am sure Harry LaLonde (my Dad)was a God parent of either Mary or Kathy. We lived down the street. Time and distance separate but memories remain. Mary Gordon RIP and prayers and condolences to the Family John B. LaLonde for the LaLonde Family

Mary was one tiny strong woman! I was honored to attend one of her Friday night "drop ins". Love for family was enough to fulfill her life. May you rest in peace and be once again with Noble. Fond memories of you Mary!

To the Sellwoods,
Your Mom made an impression on me the first time I met her. She was the first adult smart#%* I ever met and she could always make me laugh! Take care in knowing that you had a very special person as your mother!

Mary and Noble gave me the greatest gifts they could give when they allowed me to serve as first grade teacher to John, Paul and Chris. To top that, I was lucky enough to manage a Destination Imagination team that included (and celebrated) the many talents of grandson Jack. Thank you to all the Sellwoods! When I celebrate my birthday this year, I will celebrate with Mary, as I often did.
