I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your mother. She was a beautiful person.
I pray that God will strengthen you and keep you during your time of sorrow. Please try to focus on the good times that you shared with her. I am sure they were numerous.
Jesus loves you all and he will surely see you through!
Prayerfully.

Mrs. Mary leaves a legacy few can match. A beautiful, kind woman who raised fine children who are themselves into kind, ambitious and stellar members of the community. Mary, you will be remembered always. A long beautiful life full of God's guidance and love that you shared with so many others. God has blessed us all for knowing Mary McDowell.
