Mary, I will miss our little chats in your lovely little home in Millsboro. You could always make me laugh. Some people have the natural ability to make you feel welcome. You and John both shared that gift! Thank you for your friendship. Loretta Hermann

Mary Healy was a sweet lady who enjoyed seeing people and going out with them. The Healys used to live behind us at the beach and they were the greatest neighbors every. I not just miss Mary but I also miss her husband John also. They were the nicest neighbors ever. My prayers and condolences go out to their family and friends They will be truly missed. My dad enjoyed their company along with my mom and me. We will miss getting together with them. RIP John and Mary you are forever in our hearts.
