For Mary's family, who she loved so much, I hope the memories of her will comfort you through the long walk you are about to embark.
I am so sorry for your loss, Mary was always fun to be around. I really enjoyed knowing her & Greg.

Native American Prayer

I give you one thought to keep,

I am with you still -I do not sleep

I am the wind that blows

I am the diamond glints on snow


I am the sunlight ripened grain

I am the gentle autumn rain

When you awaken in the morning's rush,

I am the swift uplifting rush

of quiet birds in flight, I am the soft stars that shine at night

Do not think of me as gone--

I am not dead, I did not die--

I am with you still at each new dawn.

Mary was my sister, a perdon who had such a great gift of being herself. It seems impossible that a light that shown so bright could be darkened so completely. It is hard to think of her being gone from us, when she was so full of life. It doesn't seem real.I will miss her, her laugh,her sense of humor. There was only one... Love you Mary.
