So sorry for your loss. I bowled with Mary for quite a few years and she was a delight....always with a smile or a funny thing to say. May her memory be a blessing!

When you think about Mary you think of how kind and generous she was. She was always excited for the people around her. She tried to make you feel comfortable when you were on her team or playing against her. She was always self- deprecating even though she was the best bowler in our league. We will miss you soooo very much Mary!
