My deepest sympathy to Mary´s family. She and Art were so good to me when I first moved to Chicago from Philadelphia. Met them thru mutual friends and her husband Art hired me to work at a radio station with him. He and Mary were so gracious welcoming me into their home for many a dinner or celebration. Although it´s been many years since then, I always remember Mary and Art fondly. The love in their home was so vibrant and often extended to others outside the family. Mary was always kind and that home was always filled with laughter. May she RIP and prayers are going up for her family. May your memories comfort you in the days ahead.
