So sorry for your loss. Your family is in our prayers.
Mary was a blessing.
My thoughts and prayers are with family, for your loss. In school I remember Mary’s ” Red Hair” and unique smile.
My thoughts and prayers are with family and sorry for your loss.
Mary was one of the wittiest kids in our class. Usually her witticisms were under her breath, but if you were lucky enough to catch it, it was a treat. Mary was just a quality human being. I am sorry she is gone. Prayers for her family.
