our family will always treasure the many memories we have with Mrs Mary. She took us in and always treated us like we were a part of her family and always showed us love. everytime we would visit, we never left until she hugged our necks and told us that she loved us. Mrs Mary will definitely be missed and I know she will be waiting on us there! Heaven just keeps getting sweeter!!! Praying for the family that she left behind- Love you Mrs Mary, until we meet again.....
