She was truly a good friend to me. I do miss her singing in the choir and directing. Beautiful person. The service was lovely. RIP Mary! Tell my momma and grandma and grandad I said hey. I miss them too.

Mary was a true friend and a hard worker. She was forever seeking ways to help better the lives of others around her. I will always cherish the great memories of the times we spent together, going on trips, eating breakfast, and just talking. She always greeted me with an amazing smile, and pleasant attitude. I will miss you my dear friend. My you Rest In Peace.

Mary, my dear friend for over 60 years, I am heartbroken. Mary was compassionate and trustworthy. I won't forget how we loved to sing together in high school and throughout college. We were enthusiastic about teaching and our first teaching position was at the same school. She cared about her students' achievement and well-being. I have so many memories about Mary, but the main thing is that she believed in and loved God. We were members of the same sisterhood and indeed, Mary's works speak volumes about her life. You are missed my sweet sister friend.

Ms. Ragland will be greatly missed. I still cannot believe that she is gone. So... so many good memories of my former Sky Haven family co-worker and friend. Her works and memories of her will continue to live on. I thank GOD for the blessing to have known her.

Ms.Ragland was my 4th grade teacher at Sky Haven Elementary. I can always remember her red nail polish. Ms.Ragland was definitely one of a kind. Teaching was something that she loved dearly. She will be missed.

Ms. Ragland was a true solider in the army of the Lord! She worked for the Lord at Sky Haven School, at churches and in the community. One of her favorite songs she use to sing on the WYZE Radio station was "May the Work I´ve Done Speak For Me"! Mary song that song because she lived that song. Being a co-worker at Sky Haven School with Mary was a treat to remember! Her love for people-especially children was contagious! . She was her students teacher, mother, counselor, caregiver and so many more titles that only Jesus Christ knows. To sum this little section up I pray that we all will be ready to meet Jesus. Her work spoke for her!

Ms. Ragland was one of the best 5th grade teachers I knew at Sky Haven Elementary. She was a teacher, Mom, Aunt, and Grandmother who attended the school and encountered her. She will truly be missed. Love you Ms. Ragland.
