Mary was a angel here on earth,such a careing and loving person, anyone who knew her was truely touched by her.
I looked forward to seeing her every Saturday when she came to get her hair do for the week, I learned so much from her and will miss her but I know she is in a better place now with no pain. Thanks Mary for sharing a small part of your life with me. I miss you and love you, till we meet again.

To all of the Lind Family: We will all miss Mary; she was our hero; We loved her tenacity and down to earth attitude. I know she is free of all pain now but we sure will miss her.
We wish we could be at the services but we will be there in spirit. We will all miss her and her wonderful cooking. What an amazing woman and we are so glad we had a chance to get to know her. Don't be sad; she would not understand that; Mary, your spirit will always be with us all.

Our love to you all.
