Mary and I were such good friends. We always had a good time together when we volunteered at Valley Baptist, joined the Garden Club, or when we held offices for the 12:30 club. I will always remember her laugh, her pretty smile and how gracious she was to all who knew her. I will miss
her so much. I send my deepest sympathy to Robert and her family.
