Dear Family of Mary. I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I will always remember how friendly Mary was when I would run into her occassionally throughout the years. She would always ask about my mom and my family. When we were all little, I remember when our parents had those summer picnics, which were so much fun. Lives change, people scatter and develop their own memories, but those fun times will always be remembered as a child growing up....impressions made when you least know it. God Bess you and the ones you left behind. Sincerely, Colleen and Larry Carr
