I am the person who introduced Mary Jane to The Red Hat Society. We had many good times. I am sorry to hear of her passing. Guess she was more ill then we realized.

My thoughts and prayers are with YOU, her family. PS - George, I heard so much about you; I truly wish I'd have had the opportunity to have met you in person.

I will miss this dear soul,who during her time of suffering helped me pray for my Mother during her illness. I thank God for the angels we are sent along the way on our path of life. God Bless MaryJane and her family.

I first met Mary Jane thru my sister she was a very nice person. Then she use to shop at Pick n save were I work she has been missed there since shes been in the hospital. I will always remember the times we spent talking to Sharon the meat demo lady for hours sometimes. And the time we went to Red Lobster and she first tried coconut shrimp, she was addicted after that. She would tell me that she snuck over there and got an order to go and ate it all by herself in the car. I sure will miss her. Rest In Peace Mary Jane.
