My condolences to the family. Mrs Null was the best teacher I´ve ever had. She made you want to learn and made learning fun. As a student you never wanted to let her down. I´m glad we reconnected after 30 years since grade school. She wasn´t just a teacher, she was a Mom away from home. After knowing her for almost 45 years, she still corrected my grammar. Heaven gained a wonderful ANGEL. I will always be grateful God put you in my life. Rest In Peace

I got to know Mary as loving grandmother to Tessa. Her beautiful eyes lift up when she arrived at the end of the day when I used to take care of baby Tessa. The love for her was clear. I know she's going to be terribly missed.

We were heart broken when we received the news about Mary. Some of my best memories growing up include Mary and the Null family. Mary was always so inviting and her sense of humor always put a smile on my face. When I think of Mary I can´t help but think of Puzzles and Penn State football!!! Mary you will be greatly missed and the Null family you are in our thoughts and prayers.

My sincerest and most heartfelt condolences to the family. I had the pleasure of working with Mary at Camp Curtin for several years and she quickly grew to be one of my favorite coworkers!! Beyond being such an incredible reading specialist, she was a mentor to me and her wonderful humor brightened many days for me. Mary was one-in-a-million! I will forever remain grateful for her guidance, humor and loving heart! Rest In Peace, sweet Mary!

Babe, a.k.a. Sib 5, You are the most like our mom. You have such a quick wit, sharp intelligence, your thoughtfulness, love for teaching, and the ability to give sound advice will be so very missed. I am having trouble imagining this world without you physically here. So very proud to call you my sister. I will always love and miss you Babe. Sister Shorty a.k.a. Sib 7

Jeepers! How can you say so long to the most incredible Reading Specialist?
You can´t because she is so "Unforgettable " in every way. I´m so thankful I got to know her family via FB.
May God heal our hearts. She is very well missed by all she touched.

I am so sorry for your loss. Mary was a shining light and I felt so lucky to have worked with her when I started my educational career. Her humor, brains, and heart were a blessing to all who knew her.
