I work at the tacobell that Mary liked to frequent. She always brought a smile to everyone's day when she came through. Whether she was by herself or had her daughter with her. You will be missed, your light shines bright everywhere you go beautiful! My condolences to the family, i hope that you find peace in knowing she's watching over all of us, no longer in pain. Fly high hon!

I didn´t know Mary personally, but as an employee of her TacoBell of choice, I loved her. She always managed to make me smile even during the toughest of shifts. After my first couple days working there, just under two years ago now, I looked forward to seeing her every day after that. I even memorized the price of her soft taco with no lettuce. Even tho our interactions were cut short every time, I loved talking and laughing with her. We were terribly worried when she stopped showing up, I was devastated as to see why. I will NEVER forget you, Mary. May you rest in peace with the lord and my condolences to her family.
