To Shara and family,
My thoughts and prayers are with you. Thank you so much for sharing your mom with me. She was an inspiration to me and I loved her so much. I just lost my mom the week before and now the two are rekindling their friendship in heaven.

Mary Irene Dutton..............she is the reason I find myself where I do. It was the strength of will and personality that I saw in Shara, that she adopted from her mother (and father), that I found so attractive. Where I was weak, she was strong. What defined Shara, she learned from Mary. Her family's sojourn to California crossed paths with my own and I was captivated. Mary overcame enormous odds to grab control of her present, her future, her family's future, (rather late in life, actually) to solidly ground all of their destinies. She anchored them. None of her three children lacked any of the courage required in this difficult life. They were--are--all dynamic souls well worth knowing. Who knows what seeds you are sowing? Thank you, Mary. I'll never forget you....

Lee and Shara, as you both well know I never met Mary. However, just as my own mother, she obviously provided the care your family needed to have a great ongoing family and to set the high standards and example that have made you the people you are today. It is a sad event, but in another way it is probably better for her that she no longer suffers. We all must face this, as we, ourselves grow older. I know you will have the strength and courage to get through this, given to you by Mary.

Hi Jack, This is Roger Massey I worked for you at the 66 station on North Beale rd . I am so sorry for your loss, Mary was my first agent when I moved here in '65. I always enjoyed our times at the Live Oak track .I'll never forget our trip to Colorado deer hunting , we all smelled so bad coming home. As you may remember I went to Viet Nam in 69 and came right back here and have been here ever since. I tried numerous times to find your place as I was there many times, but it's been to many years. I would love to here from you if you want. My number is 742-7937 or I am in the book.
