I knew Ms. Treadwell when she was married to, later to be, Mayor Marion Berry in the 1960's. She was a loving devoted public minded individual. Her life was deeply rooted in public service. Mary and her giving to others will be missed. R.I.P. Mary, till we meet again. Next time it will not be on "A" St., S.E.
