Mary was one of the sweetest, kindest people  I have ever met. She always had a smile on her face and had a cheerful word for everyone. I remember her friendliness, all the way back to St. Mary's grade school. Heaven has just gained a true angel. Rest In Peace, my friend.

I am shocked and saddened to hear about Mary's death. We were good friends in high school and our friendship continued into college. She was a kind, funny, glass-half-full kind of person. I was always so impressed with her faith, her positivity and her strength, particularly after her family's tragic losses. She was one of a kind and Heaven has truly gained an angel. Godspeed Mary and save me a seat.
