I am so glad I could always call her Cousin Mary. She was a relative you were delighted to call family. What a generous spirit and such a pleasure to be around throughout her full life. Last year, at the age of 94, she took the time to make pralines for us in Atlanta because my grown daughter remembered how she would make them for them as kids. I had that time with her last year so I am grateful for that. My condolences to the entire family, Sharon, RIP, Steve & Bobby. I am there in spirit with the 4 of you.

Mary Duplain was a terrific member of the Hyde Park community. She was warm and generous and her passion for good was unmatched She helped in my election campaigns, and a great help she was. Who could say no to Mary Duplain? She set a high standard for us all, and we will do our best to live up to her hopes for us. She will be sorely missed.
Sympathies to all the family,
