Some people come into our lives and we never quite know why but their presence makes an enormous impact. Mary was one of those truly special people. Eighty-seven years young, with an enviable attitude and a storytelling ability to captivate, our times together were filled with lots of giggles and a great deal of love.

She was generous, kind and truly fun (characteristics that I admire) and one of the reasons we came south was to see her and say our unavoidable farewells. Mary succumbed to the cancer that had plagued her. Thankfully, I had several visits with her and, as usual, Mary was her wonderful positive self, rallying to provide us with comforting memories. “It’s always hard to lose somebody. It leaves a hole in you heart that never grows back. ”

You were lucky to have her in your life, and she was just as equally lucky to have you!
In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit. -Albert Schweitzer
