Mary was my art teacher in the mid to late 1980's. She was very encouraging and sassy too. I looked forward to her classes. Thinking of the family at this sad time.

Mary Franklin was my idol as a young girl. She was my first cousin and I'd love visiting her and all the family at Selma in Staunton and was very proud to for a while wear her hand-me-down clothes! I loved to watch her draw, especially when she was drawing me! I was at camp with she and Julia Boward, another cousin on 9/11 as we got the sad news while discussing a book we were reading, "A Walk in the Woods" by Bill Bryson. So many memories I'll cherish. My best to Shaun, Mark and Amy with deep sympathy. Kirk McAllister Huske, Winston-Salem, NC
