Moxie was a special person and a good friend. She had a wonderful sense of humor and you couldn't be in a bad mood around her. Her humor was infectious.
We will miss her on the golf course and in our lives.

My name is Pauline. I think I know Mary.
I would love to know if you had live in Glennville and owned a grocery store?
I was 14 when I lived there.
