Mary enjoyed a good long life. She was one of those the Bible call especially strong.

Mary was one of the loyal members that the St. Mark Care Team tried to give contact to over the years. Mary was always kind to me when I called to check on her. It sounded like she was weak and was in pain, but she never complained. She will be missed for her sweet spirit. Elaine Harrell
