Our deepest sympathy goes out to all of Aunt Mary's closest family and friends in the short time I knew her, she made a big impressio. On me, I saw her as someone who was truly devoted to her family and to God. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her including me. God Bless and keep you all in his peace and rest, Love, The Stephens family.
