Prayer's for Mary's family. Mary was always so nice to be around, and when I seen them together they owned the world. My Dad Jerry Stewart always talked fondly of her.
Always.

I was saddened to hear of Mary's passing, and my thoughts are with the family.
A kind, gentle soul that always had a smile, her & my Uncle Jerry adored each other so.
