We are so glad to have shared the past 30 years with Mary. She was a little lady, but she made a big impression; whether it was by her gentle spirit,her marvelous sense of humor or her incredible faith life. Many of us have benefited from her example. Rest in peace dear friend. We love you.

We will miss Mary in St. Leo’s Church and in our “50+ Group”. We have many good memories of our times together. As Hal & Madelyn have said, she was always smiling and happy. She saw the funny side of things and taught us a thing or two about how to live our lives. Dear Mary, the Lord Bless and Keep you!
