Mary has always been a source of love, support, and humor to my mother, and my family. I remember fondly the last face-to-face conversation we had even thought it was about 2 years ago. She had a huge impact on all of our lives.

Words cannot express the sadness we feel upon hearing about the loss of your mother. She was such a fun lady and lit up a room when she entered. She will certainly be missed. Rita & Vern Petterson formerly of Territorial Drive

I will miss Mary's smiling face at Mary, Mother of the Church! We got to know each other when Mary became the Travel Agent for the youth going to World Youth Day. She loved using her talents to get the youth to the greatest Catholic youth pilgrimage in the world. She helped us out with many challenges and never lost her smile. May she now be in the arms of Jesus resting from all her travels.

Dear Curt- and family..... Please accept my condolences... I am so sorry for your loss. Your mom was the best. You are in my thoughts and prayers. I remember how great your mom was when we were kids. There was the church connection, for sure--- but I have to say- beyond that, she made us kids feel welcome in your home. The pool parties were great. No, really great fun times. I remember her being around and being really cool. She was a Mom, but she was cool. She let us be kids, she made sure we behaved (LOL) and she impressed me with the way she stood for both the Cool Mom thing and the Real Mom thing. I will not forget that smile. I feel your loss, and I mourn with you. God Bless Mary.

Dear Myhre Family Members,

I am so sorry to hear of Mary's death. I am Mary's cousin and we played together as children at family gatherings. Her father and mother, Al and Louise, were also close friends of my parents Armella (Becker) and Cyril Hanrahan. Mary and I continued to correspond at Christmas for many years. I am sorry for the pain that you must be feeling, especially at this joyous time of the year. She will continue to be in your thoughts in a special way at future Christmas times. My father ,Cyril, died on Christmas day, so I know. May the happy Mary I remember rest in peace.

I have known Mary for many years. I went to school with Karen and Mary has sent us on some wonderful vacation. I think the thing I will always remember about her is everytime I saw her she smiled at me. It always made me feel good. I'm sorry for you loss of such a nice lady.

Julie, Karen and Curt, Our lives are forever changed by your Mom in so many special ways. She was a wonderful friend, a woman of great faith and such a positive person. Plus, oh how she loved to laugh and have a good time! All who were fortunate to know her experienced how generously she shared her spirit. Plus, Mary was such a good sport and a compassionate person. We will never forget her faithful cards, calls and visits during our challenging times. During our last visits with her, just before she went to hospice, she told both of us that she felt closer to God than ever before and that now she just wanted to be with her family. Though her physical presence is missing, she will always be with you in the many treasured memories you shared. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. With Love, Lou and Karen Kaiser Clark
