Char, Randy and Jimmy: Just wanted to let you know how saddened we are at the loss of your mom. She was a great lady with a great laugh and just a joy to be around. I remember back Char when you and I were teenagers and spent time at your house and your mom would always be there making us laugh. She was just a wonderful lady who I know will be missed greatly. But we have the memories and those we will have forever...God Bless

Love Debbie and family

Al has already expressed our families sympathy - I just wanted to reaffirm his thoughts. What a great person Mary was - the fun we had in Pete's Posse will never be forgotten.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Randy, Charlene & Jimmy! I am so sorry to hear about your mom. I had short visit with her recently and she was the same Mary I knew in Pete's Posse. She was always so much fun. My thoughts are with you all during this difficult time.

Dear: Randy, Charlene, and Jim,
My family and I are so sorry to hear about the loss of your mother. She was a wonderful friend and I always loved sharing a story and laugh with her.
I was so happy to have spent some time with all of you this past year, when she was still telling stories and laughing so hard, even though she had so much on her mind.
Peace my friends..take care

Mary probably had more memories of me as a child than I do of her altogether! But one memory I will never forget was when I spent a few nights at her place and while I was there I was attacked by one of her chickens! It's a bit of an awkward memory but it's one I hold dear to me. She will never be forgotten and may she rest in peace.

Dear Randy, Charlene & Jimmy...We were very saddened to hear of the passing of your mom. I will always remember her as being the happy, fun loving free spirit that she always was. There are many fond memories from sleep overs to birthday parties, Pete's Posse & the Rowdy Gang to the Neighborhood Crazy Bunch Coffee Clutches. Your mom touched many hearts and she will be greatly missed. Our prayers and thoughts go out to you during this sad time. Those who bloom in the hearts of others never fade away. May you find comfort and strength in your memories...God bless you all.
