She was a very important person to me, and I thought of her as a 2nd mom when I was a little girl, at least the fun part. Aunt Mary always had something going on that was intriguing, and she found humor in most situations. She was very beautiful with platinum blond hair and big blue eyes. She was a little wild, but one could never get bored with her. You could be yourself with Aunt Mary and didn't have to worry about how it might look or whether or not it was appropriate. At the end of the day, she wasn't going to feel any differently about you. Most people are simply not like that. I learned a lot from her life, and I miss her already.
