Mary was a very dear friend of my Mother Claire and my Aunt, Barbara and she was very kind to me when I stayed for awhile at Harden Blvd. I was very saddened to hear of her passing but know she was declining in recent years and hope she is at peace in a better place.
Thoughts and prayers to her family
