I miss your face, Miss Mary ♥ Makayla is beautiful. I will always remember how much you made me smile because she was born on your birthday. And all I did was smile that day. Part of me wants to think thats because of you. Sleep peacefully babygirl ♥ P.S. since the birth of Makayla, I am now part of the fat girls club! LOL

hi from an old friend

Penny I just heard from Jim what happened to Mary. I am so sorry and wish I had known this when it had happened. I moved back to Pa from Az in late September. I am currently living with Jim temporarily. I have been sober since Feb. of 1996 so that is why I stopped contact with you, it was a matter of life and death. I know that you have been through a lot and wish I could have been there for you. I have been through a tramatic experience with Danielle as well. I can only remember Mary running around outside with bare feet and free spirit, I can only hope that she is that way again....I share in your grief as a mother and offer my prayers to you and your family. Love Always, Wendy (610-203-8438)

Such a beautiful young lady taken away from her daughter, and all of us, much too soon. Mary, may your angelic light shine upon your beautiful daughter, Isabella Rose, for the remainder of her life. My prayers go out to all of Mary's family and friends who mourn her tragic loss. Although I did not know her, apparently Mary was able to accomplish in 20 years what God had intended for her here on earth, in what takes most of us many, many years. God bless!
