They say everyone you meet leaves a footprint on your life, for such a little lady Mary left a huge imprints on my life and the life of many. She was always happy to see you and made you feel very special. The world is a sadder place without her. I had the great privilege of knowing Mary and her amazing loving family for over 16 years. I now live out of the state and unable to make it back for her service. But to her family I extend my sincere sympathies for your immeasurable loss. Remember that our lives are all better for have been a part of this amazing and loving little ladies life. God bless you.

RIP little Mary, you will be forever missed by all who knew you. You always knew how to make me laugh and bring a smile to my face. I'm sure you are cracking them up in Heaven. Rip buddy, til we meet again.

My heart is so broken by this news. I worked with Mary for 8 years when she lived at Bryant Ave. She was always a joy to work with. She could never pronounce my name correctly but always screamed it when she saw me followed by a warm hug and a "hello girlfriend". I will send my thoughts and prayers to you all as I know my pain is only a fraction of what you all are feeling. Rest well sweet Mary.
