Mary Emily Duhon "Boots" Shambra

Mamere: It's your first grandson..."Number One" as everyone says. I want to thank you for everything you did for us. You were always opening your home and offering a hot meal or a cold drink to your family, friends, and many times even the delivery man or even a stranger. You were content at your summer home in Waveland, or at the casino playing the nickel slot machines, or heading up to Branson to see a show, or even staying home and watching Notre Dame football or the Shopping Channel. You were a saint for taking care of your sick husband and sick mother at the same time for all those years. You deserve all the peace in the universe, and there has been a spot reserved in Heaven for you for a long time. I will miss you. Say "Hi" to Gramps and to Jeremy for me. Love, James

Mamere- it was a joy getting to know you over the past 9 years. Your sweet kindness and gentle spirit will stay in my memory always. Thanks for all you have done for the Maumus family and for the people you touched in your life- Take Jeremy out for a dance, ok?? Love you! Marlene
