We miss Mary so much. The kids loved to sing "Jesus Loves Me" while she played so beautifully during the Sunday School openings. She was so special to so many.

And we as believers know that to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord.... Mary has inherited eternal life! I am sure it is very difficult for you as family and for us as friends to accept but, God doesn't make any mistakes and He needed her more than we did. He has given her rest eternal. To God be the Glory!

Crabtree Family:
I am going to miss Mary so much. Mary was such a humble person and an excellent worker. I am sad now because I miss her morning smile and our afternoon laughter. But, I am also rejoicing because Mary is in a better place and at peace. She fought a good fight and there is a heavenly crown waiting for her.

I enjoyed working with Mary so much. She was such a kind and gentle spirited person. I will remember the many conversations we had together. She will be missed by her many co-workers/friends at Columbus City Schools.

Dearest Bethany, Timmy (family): My heart is broken over the passing of your mother. I’m so sorry for your loss. I went to dinner with Mary last Wednesday night before church, and we arrived back at church a little early. She picked up the accordion and began to play. Tilting her head back, she began to talk about her grandmother as tears welled up in her eyes. She played “Sweet Hour of Prayer”, telling me how it was the first song she had ever learned to play. She went on to tell me how her Grandmother had protected and encouraged her and how she longed to see her again. I had never seen her have such a sweet look on her face as she did that night. I will miss her more than words can say, but I know she has found her peace... and her grandmother. Love to all.
