May Mary's soul rest in peace. I will never forget the many late evenings that we all sat in the community room at Silver Hill, watched television, and debated so many current events. Mary always had a lot to add to the debates. In addition, I will never forget the many late nights that we would go upstairs to the library also to use the computer before going to our respective apartments to retire for the night. Mary will be missed a whole lot.
And though her family and other friends also certainly will grieve and emphatically will miss her, let us all celebrate her life through our memories because she loved living, and she was a great inspiration to all of us, even taking one of my grandsons to school one morning when he had stayed overnight and he missed the school bus.
Mary' work here on Earth is done and our God has called her home to prepare the way for others. I pray that I will see her again one day in Heaven for I am so blessed to have known her here on Earth.

Psalm 90:10 says that the days of our years are 70 years, And if because of special mightiness they are 80 years.
May the memories of the wonderful times you shared together bring a smile and joy in your heart.

Much love and condolences to the family and friends of Mary Gaskill. Such a beautiful soul with high minded ideals, a deep love of nature, people, sustainability and always holding a positive vision for a healthier planet for everyone. She taught me a lot in such a short time and was a real blessing in my life. I feel I have a good road map now on how to leave the world a better place. God speed dear friend.

Much love, light and comfort to the family and friends of Mary Gaskill. My heart is heavy to lose such a beautiful person. She was one of my all time favorite people - spiritually wise, a sharp mind and a wonderfully articulate intellectual conversationalist. I always learned something valuable and inspirational with every encounter with her. Best of all, she was unfailingly enthusiastic in actively making the world a better place. Thank you, Mary, for being a much beloved, life-enhancing presence in so many lives.
