Lori, Doug, and family - I send my condolences on the passing of your mother/grandmother. I have many memories of your parents through stories and experiences shared while we were in medical school. She certainly lived life to the max. May your memories console you at this time. Elizabeth Dean

So sorry to hear about Mary. One silly memory I have is when Mary and Harold left a party Bob and I had (in 1973), then a few minutes later "streaked" the party in their underwear. I also remember several New Year's Eve parties at Jim and Paula Munn's house. Not ALL my memories are about parties, but-----

Mary was one of those ladies who welcomed anyone and everyone with such warmth and hospitality. I met her back in 1975 as a young wife of a nfew medical student at OSU Osteopathic School of Medicine and Surgery. Thank you for always being there for us in the early days of the medical school. You and Harold supported us in every way possible. THANK YOU!
