Offering God's peace as Maria is in heaven

Maria, You are fondly remembered as the little girl with great potential that rose to be an accomplished professional. You will never be forgotten. Rest as your journey is over and you can do much good where you are now. EMB

May peace be yours Chester and Maria know your loving daughter is our Father's Arms.

Chester, Maria and Family, Although the loss will always be with you, Maria is now in a wonderful place and she will be responsible for the many wonderful things and times that take place in the years ahead for all of you, she would have it no other way. God's peace to you. Love, your friend , Edward M. Butler

Dear Mom,
I was so lucky to even know you, you were so happy and creative all the time. You will be greatly missed but your legacy will live on, I promise to live up to your expectations and be as perfect as you were. When I meet you in heaven I know you will be waiting for me with a big smile and hug. It's a shame that bad things happen to good people but that's our cruel world that we live in. Having you as my mother made this world not as cruel as it Is. I miss you so so much and cannot wait to see you again.


Love,
Gus

Dear Maria, I was stunned when I found out today of your passing. We met in Neiman's Houston, I was a sales associate and you, one of the happiest most positive ladies I had ever met on the job. It take take long for us to dicoer tAlthough we didn't know each other well, I know I will never forget you! My heart is aching because I never got to tell you in person how much I admired you and how much you inspired me.

I met Maria in Tulane, we were floor mates fist year of college, studied together, and brief roommates. I will always treasure how she inspired me to grow in my catholic faith. She is shining from above now. My prayers and thoughts are with her family.

Chester, Maria & family, we are so very sorry to hear about your beautiful daughter's passing. Please know you will all be in our prayers.
God Bless You,

My dearest cousin, my heart is broken that you have left us. I will take comfort in our wonderful memories growing up and that you are no longer suffering. You were beautiful in every way. I love you and will forever miss you.

I was fortunate enough to work with Maria at Phillips 66. I will always remember her laugh, warm smile, quick wit and how she burst with pride when talking about her boys.

She has been and will continue to be missed here in the office.

To her family, my heart is so very heavy for your loss. I am praying for peace and comfort for each of you in the days and months to come.

Maria was always a burst of sunshine during the workday. Her loss is deeply felt.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you all during this difficult time.

She was a beautiful girl with a beautiful heart taken too early. May she rest in peace. My heart breaks for you Chet and Maria. RIP Vic

What always struck me most about Maria was not her intelligence, common sense, or quick-wittedness (all of which she had in abundance), but her gentle, warm spirit. Even in the heat of tough negotiations, this spirit radiated like warm sun. I've rarely experienced anything like it. I'm profoundly sad that she's no longer with us, and my deepest condolences to her loving family. She is now home. Maria, pray for us.

I will never forget how Maria would enthusiastically talk about Jazzfest in New Orleans or the time she accidentally swallowed a bug on our way to lunch during one of her visits to Bartlesville! I enjoyed getting the chance to work with Maria and she will be missed.

Maria was one of the kindest people I ever had the honour to work alongside. I'm heartbroken by this news. Sending you, David, and your family, my most heartfelt condolences.

Will miss you very much. I will never forget the wonderful job you did in a meeting with the Port Authority in NYC. You got the deal done remarkably, and pulled it out of the ditch against all odds! Thank you, and God Bless you and your family.

Maria was a joy to work with. So much energy. No ego or chip on her shoulder. So accepting of others. I know she will be missed by so many people. I was very grieved to hear about her passing, and I have not doubt that she put up a fierce battle. I pray that she rests in peace.

David, Henry, Gus and family --

Maria, your Mom, she loved you with her whole being. She was proud of you, amazed by you, and inspired by each of you. This I know to be true because she told me often and freely. That being is eternal and no longer hurt by a sick body. I loved her and miss her.

Your friend, too,

Maria Dunn

I will miss Maria's contagious smile and laugh that would fill a room with joy. She was an absolute delight to work with. Sharp, articulate, professional, kind, and fun. She was always willing to give of herself to help others.

Praying for the family.

Maria will truly be missed. She was a rare gem - thoughtful, empathetic, very focused and loved her family deeply. I had the distinct pleasure of working with Maria since 2009 and enjoyed her professionalism and adeptness. Praying for the family.

I've worked with Maria since 2006 and I've found her to be a wonderfully thoughtful person that was always fun to deal with and a pleasure to talk to. She will be missed.

I worked with Maria from 2008 until 2017. I remember she always spoke of her children with a mother's pride, and was quick to laugh, anytime, anywhere. She has been, and will continue to be missed. My condolences.

What a shock to learn that Maria had passed away through BBCC. I can't imagine the loss of such a beautiful and vibrant person. We were not close friends but had many mutual friends. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Groff and Bartush families. With love, the Mooz family

Pure love-joy! Beautiful friend-loved life!
