It was always a special occasion when Mary could get to church. She always held my hand and told me I sang like an angel. She gave me a crocheted doily she made and it is on a table in my living room. It reminds me of her with her gentle smile and soft hands. My condolences to her family.

Our sincere sympathies to Mary´s family and friends. I´ve known Mary and her family all my life. We use to have weekly visits with Irene and Bill and Mary when she was able to visit at my Grandma Myrtle Beckett Jordan´s house. Our families have been fortunate to have had all those wonderful years. You will be dearly missed
Love, Donna & Steve Duteau
