Mary Carlson Obituary

Carlson, Mary Anna
Born March 28, 1945 in Boston, MA. She became the Lord's newest angel on May 20, 2002. She moved to Calfornia when she was 14 years old, graduated from Hollywood High in 1962 and worked at Jefferies Bank Note for 25 years. She later became a hairstylist at Sam's Family Hair Salon in Alhambra, CA. There is not enough room in any newspaper to express what she meant to all of us. She is preceded in death by her son, John Zinn. Her loving daughter, Patricia Maureen Thayer and four loving granddaughters, Mary, Megan, Ashley and Hannah survive her. The love of her life, Sam Artino, was with her when she passed away. We'll deeply miss her and think of her all of our lives.
