I just learned of Mary's passing today. I am so saddened . I had the good fortune of sharing time with Mary as her hairdresser for 15 years.I would like to let you all know as a mother, grandmother, Mary felt vey proud and fufilled by all of you. I know you gave her great joy. She sure was a character, fun and very kind. Never did i hear her speak a mean word of anyone... She was lovely. I will miss her. Rest in peace Mary.
