I was one of her students in 1979. I still remember her words of wisdom in our weekly meetings. She was the real deal for helping us all. Thank you. I´m now 75 yo and still think of her. Thank you.

Mary was not only smart; but extremely talented. When I first started working at Winnebago; Mary wrote and directed Christmas plays for the staff Christmas Tea. Every year, she wrote a play, based on events of the past year. Many staff participated as actors. It was delightful and everyone looked forward to it every year. At the end, she received a bouquet of roses. It was one of the best memories I have of the hospital, thanks to her. Mary Kotschi, Oshkosh, WI

I feel so blessed that my family and I had the honor to be her neighbor. I have never met someone so loving, caring and young at heart. Her Best Friend Morgan will miss all the milk and cookies that spoiled her dinner.

Mary continues to be an inspiration for me. She was bigger than life, always joyful, informed, and never at a loss for words. She was a classic Auntie Mame. Whenever she was in the room, she pulled you in like a magnet, for she was so full of life, you wanted to be part of joy she shared. I will truly miss her but take comfort that Nicholas (from Singapore) and I had a wonderful goodbye chat with her two days before she left us. May you rest in peace Apelita Parasol.

I am so sorry to hear that Mary passed away! What a wonderful lady she was! I enjoyed working with her and loved her company after work. She will truly be missed by me and everyone else who knew her.
