Mary was a tremendous help in my classroom and with my children. I knew she would be there to help with anything I needed - professionally or personally. She had so much patience with my son. The understanding and compassion combined with a "no-nonsense" attitude towards disrespect was always something we all could count on. She was always willing to dance The Electric Slide with the kids, too!
Thank you, Mary, for giving us your whole "self". You will be missed.
