Having no email in a while I was wondering about Mary. A person I shared a lot of time with in ceramics. She won second prize at the big ceramic show when she entered my porceline "Melt down" " as a joke.WE LAUGHED FOR YEARS OVER THAT ONE.
Surely will miss our phone conversations and time. Wonderful woman and I am glad we were friends with both her and Bob. God Bless her family.
