I am proud and so glad to have known Mary for well over 35 years. She was a big part off my family for all that time.

Wish I could be there to say goodbye.

Mrs. Wilson had a knack for keeping us unruly PCHS Latin Class Imports in line and in our books. She was a vibrant lady and have very fond memories from my time knowing her at PNHS and St. B's. Thoughts to entire family.

We had so much fun in Latin class at PNHS. Never did I think that a high school teacher would still be in my life thirty years later. I'm sure her and Marvin are going to have a lot of catching up to do. We will surely miss her. Our thoughts and prayers go out to her family.

She was always supportive, loving and honestly cared about every life she touched. I feel honored to be one of those people and will light a candle in her honor this evening. Much love to my "second" family.
