When I think of Mary it always brings a smile....she was so sweet yet had a devilish sense of humor....
She was my confidant and friend I could always trust, and feeling blessed having her as a friend for so many years. She is missed....

I met Mary my first year teaching school and she has been one of my very best friends since then more than 50 years. She was fun, funny, and true. I will cherish my memory of the wonderful friendship and many good times we shared.
Tom and I moved to the south shore about a year before he passed.From that time on I had not been able to reach her. I had no knowledge of poor health.
Mary was fun, funny, and true simply put she was "THE VERY BEST".
I will always keep her in my heart.
