We were so sorry to hear of Mary's passing and are so sorry for your loss. Mary was quite the personality and had a great appreciation for life. I'm sure you will miss her. Be comforted knowing that you have so many wonderful memories. I remember going to play bingo with her! She was so much fun. God Bless. Terry Lundberg

Mike...can't tell you what a lovely mother you had. She was very dear to my heart in so many ways. I loved her so much and I will miss her a great deal. I spent lots of time with her and had lots of laughs. Heard lots of stories about you and Eddie and some about old buddies.....she was a great person and will be missed.
