I met Mary Kaye through the Allegretti family who were related to her. From my first meeting with her when I was a child to the interactions I had with her as an adult, I will always remember her smile and unique ability to put people at ease.



Mary Kaye had that special something that endeared her to all who knew her. Though I hadn't seen her in the past few years I still rmember that welcoming smile and heart that was open to all.



Mary Kaye left us much too soon. My condolences to her husband and sons.

I cannot imagine a world without Mary Kaye in it. She came to my rescue twice getting me hired in demo lady jobs when I really needed some money coming in. At every family funtion she was a happy smiling face.
