You chased me on the playground at HP elementary school. You always wore your girl scout uniform with pride.

Mary,
I miss you and think about you often. When I met you over 10 years ago at Camden Fairview High School, I knew you were something special. I still remember our last basketball practice and your last words as you smiled and walked out of the gym. You are family to me and your impact on me was huge. I love you and you will not be forgotten.

It's strange that I still don't comprehend that you're gone. It's been so long, yet everything is so fresh in my mind. And though I'm far from home, I can't help but think back to easier times when we were all young.
Always thinking of you and wishing I could turn back time to at least say goodbye. The impact you had on my life and so many others is truly amazing.
Here's to the short but beautiful life you lived.

Mr. & Mrs. Bachelor,
We don't know one another, but for some reason God has laid it upon my heart to write you. I started reading the obituaries in April of 2007 after my dad passed away. I have noticed your daughter's name every time I have gone into the website, but never read her obituary or the entries in her guest book until yesterday. I sat at my desk with tears in my eyes while I read all of the wonderful things that were said about your Mary. She MUST have been someone special to a lot of people. I have a 15 year old son that I could not imagine going to Heaven at 14 years old. My heart goes out to you and all who loved this little girl. It seems even after the years have passed, she is still remembered very fondly. It must be comforting to know that she did impact so many lives. May God continue to be your strength. I still don't know why God told me to write you, but he did, so I did. May God Bless you always.

Hey you may not know me but I am the grandson of Henretta Rich. When I was at her house I think Phyliss used to baby-sitt there. Anyway I just wanted to say that it is hard to see a 14-year old go and best wishes to the family.

Mary,
You know I think I may have met you once at my cousin Tawnee's birthday party. I barely remember it. But I do know how much of an impact you made on my husband's (john swallow) life. He talks about you all the time. I can't tell if he's sad or happy but I know its all good memories... so thank you for that, he doesn't have very many of those.
Your Friend,
Ashley

WOW! our graduation supplies are in today, it's so weird that we're graduating, it's not the same without you, and everybody wishes you were here to join us! i know i wish you were here! you should see felisha's baby girl, Kailyn, it's amazing how big she has gotten, i swear it seems like she should only be a week old, she's the most beautiful baby i've ever seen!!! I shed a few tears this morning when i seen the video to the song "died to young" that song just reminds me of you so much! and they always say "everything happens for a reason", but i don't think anybody will ever know the reason for you leaving us! I wish you were still here, your missing so much Mary! i love you!!! love ~!~Randi~!~

Dont worry though, we are def g0ing to save you a seat, right up there in the fr0nt, haha cause we all know that is where you would want to be :) I still d0nt understand why you had to leave us and I guess that is something that noone will never understand and maybe it is something that is meant to be not understood. Its just s0 crazy and it seems like you should be here with us during our Senior year! It just sucks s0 bad, I miss you more and more everyday. Your mom and dad sent me an angel holding a baby f0r Kailyn, it is s0 pretty and I LOVE IT!! I wish you were here to see her and play with her, she is getting s0 big, its so craZy.

Hey Mary B. I sign your other guestbook so much that I rarely get on here, but today I thought I would. I am constantely thinking about you now, more than ever. Everything is changing so much this year. Everyone has grown way closer together, or farther and father apart. The ones of us that were close back in the day have started to get closer this year. We have basically dedicated our whole Senior Year to you and your memory and thats great. Everyone still misses you just as much as ever. Keep me in your thoughts and prayers cause I know you are in mine all the time. Love You.

Hey darling! Sorry its been so long since ive written. words come harder and harder these days. its like i talk to you so much in my head, that getting online to write them down almost doesnt matter, since i talk to ya all the time. Look how the time flies. I had 2 go 2 a funeral tonight, i was really close to him, and seeing his 16 year old body lying there, knowing that he had so much life to live. Just like you. I tried not to think about other funerals, but it is so hard since that is all I've really known for three years now. I just want to let you know, that no matter how many days go by, how many months pass, or even years...I still think of you. Sometimes it's hard because you'll have said or done something funny, and I will say "My friend Mary, well, she died three years ago, but she did this once, or said that once." I think I try to act like you're still in Camden, and will be back soon. But, though you won't be coming back, I will soon up there to hang with you! I still try to think of all the good things that happened when you were here. But now, good things still happen, though your not here? And it makes me so sad to think that I can still be happy, though you're gone. I just don't understand all of this, still. I don't think I'll ever be able to forget about you, or things you said, or things you did. But, death seems to be getting easier? I mean, I just lost my friend Darin, and I'm able to cope with it better. I just wish I would have never even had to learn how to cope with it, because I wish it wouldn't have happened. Well, I'm babbling on, when all I came to say was, I love you as much now as ever, and you're always with me.

Hey Mary! I know its been a long time since I've wrote here, but don't worry I haven't forgot about you. Neither has Ali. Shes really hurt right now cause she lost a really good friend you might of known him (Darin Russell) I just wanted to see if you would give him comfort in heaven I'm sure he is loveing it better than here. Cause I know you are! Well I just wanted to leave another entry to let you know that I love you and miss you with all of my heart. But I guess I'm going to go so I'll talk to you later! Love you bye! ...Tell Ronnie I said hey and I love him too...I think about yall everyday in everything I do ..

Hello Mary I know that u dont know me because of course I live in NLR but Krystal sent me your story and everything and I had to come here on my own. Sam Urton is alot like u. He was 15 playing basketball when God decided it was time for him to go home. I didnt like that idea at all. NO WAY. I know how your friends feel. It's been almost 2 years since Sam died and it doesnt get easier. I had a brother who died when i was 12 and thats been 5 yrs and it was so hard losing him and it is still hard as ever. watch over your friends and family

Theres a reason I was drawn to this guestbook. Ok my best friend has a guestbook on here and he died at the age of 15 from a heart problem that noone could understand and he too loved basketball. hes been gone a year and 8 months and the pain is so hard and real. just 12 days after losing him, we lost his best friend also my best friend. he was in a bad car wreck coming back from Fayetteville and we drew the slogan Klick it 4 Kyle. The pain just kept building up. Then on 3/18/04 i witnessed god taking three of my best friends. the pain of losing friends is unbearable. i understand all of your friends pain but i just hope u all turn to god in this time of need. for Mary's parents, god bless u and u r in my prayers. if u would like to talk to a mother who misses her little girl too let me know and ill give u her email address. she could use someone right now!

Memories
Of all the times we shared together,
We always thought they’d last forever.
But then one day it changed so fast,
Those times have now become the past.
I look to heaven and wonder why,
I let precious moments pass me by.
No longer will we see her smiling face,
No one can ever try to take her place.
She left us all with lasting impressions,
And taught us some of God’s great lessons.
I look at my life and think,
Everything can end in the time of a blink.
When they look at the life in me,
I want to show them a person everyone could see.
You never saw the bad through her glistening smile,
These memories I’ve held only help for a while.
As life goes on, it gets easier with time,
But on the ladder of hope it gets harder to climb.
We try not to hover on the things of the past,
And try to cover them with the shadows we cast.
Some memories get lost as our lives slowly fade,
The ones we want to keep become visions that are frayed.
As three years pass I still miss her as much,
As the last day I remember her precious touch.
I love you Mary. Always have and always will.
Phyllis ( Mary's mom)

Thank you for the beautiful poem on Dec. 16.
December 16, 2004
If tomorrow starts without me,
And I'm not there to see,
If the sun should rise and find your eyes all filled with tears for me;
I wish so much you wouldn't cry the way you did today,
While thinking of the many things,
We didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me,
As much as I love you,
And each time that you think of me,
I know you'll miss me too;
But when tomorrow starts without me,
Please try to understand,
That an angel came and called my name,
And took me by the hand,
And said my place was ready,
In heaven far above,
And that I'd have to leave behind;
All those I dearly love.
But as I turned to walk away,
A tear fell from my eye for all my life,
I'd always thought, I didn't want to die.
I had so much to live for,
So much left yet to do,
It seemed almost impossible,
That I was leaving you.
I thought of all the yesterdays,
The good ones and the bad,
I thought of all that we shared,
And all the fun we had.
If I could relive yesterday,
Just even for a while,
I'd say good-bye and kiss you and maybe see you smile
But then I fully realized,
That this could never be,
For emptiness and memories, would take the place of me.
And when I thought of worldly things,
I might miss come tomorrow,
I thought of you, and when I did,
My heart was filled with sorrow.
But when I walked through heaven's gates,
I felt so much at home.
When God looked down and smiled at me,
From His great golden throne,
He said, "This is eternity,
And all I've promised you."
Today your life on earth is past, but here life starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow,
But today will always last, and since each day's the same way,
There's no longing for the past.
You have been so faithful,
So trusting and so true.
Though there were times you did some things,
You knew you shouldn't do.
But you have been forgiven, and now at last you're free.
So won't you come and take my hand, and share my life with me?
So when tomorrow starts without me, don't think we're far apart,
For every time you think of me, I'm right here, in your heart.

Mary, wow I miss you soo much.. I've been thinking about you so much lately.. So I wanted to sign your guestbook.. One of my good friends, Cady McNamara, died in a car wreck Saturday.. We told her that she shouldn't be scared because we knew you would be there with open arms with Andrew and Brynne.. Please take care of Cady.. Another friend, Lauren Brown, might be joining y'all soon.. Please take care of her too if she does.. Mary, thank you so much. Not a day goes by that I don't think of you.. I miss and love you soo much and I miss all of our fun times.. and I thank God every day for letting you be in my life.. Even if it was only for a few years.. Thank you for everything.. You changed me.. I love you soo much Mary
