Dear Karen and Chris,
So sad to hear of your Moms passing. She was such a sweet lady and we enjoyed so many times as she would tell tales of Donegal. She always had such concern for the neighbors at the cove. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family.
Regards,
Clare and mike

Dear Karen and Chris,
My deepest sympathy to you and your families for the loss of your mother. I will always hold close to my heart
the wonderful memories of her and there are so many.
She was such a good sport about everything and always with a smile. She was a beautiful person with her kind and thoughtful nature ready to help and her generous spirit just to mention a few.
I always enjoyed being with her. She was so very good to me.
With sincere sorrow and love, Elaine Garland

I am so thankful to have known Mary Herzig who was one of the kindest and gentlest people whom I have ever inown. She was outgoing in a good way and always had her sense of humor about her and was ready to see the bright side of any sad situation. I was the boyfriend of her daughter, Mary N. Herzig . Mrs. Herzig always went out of her way to make me feel part of the family, and was always loving and concerned that both Mary and I were happy.

Mary was just the sweetest neighbor. Whenever we crossed paths she would always comment that she wished she could move as fast as me. I assured her to 'just keep moving" at whatever pace. She always had a smile and words of encouragement. She'll be missed. So sorry for your loss. What a beautiful soul. Laurel and Lindy

I was so sad when I found out about Mary's passing. I've known her for many years, and she could only be described as a very sweet lady. Mary loved her family, which was very obvious whenever she talked of them. My thoughts and prayers are sent out to Mary's family, along with my deepest sympathy.
