Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
I am very sorry for your loss I worked with Mary for many years and she was a great friend she will be missed.
Mike & Aundra, I am so sorry to hear about your mother. I know she struggled for quite a while with cancer. She was a very strong lady and I know you will miss her terribly. I will be praying for you and your families. As ever, Shiela & Lloyd Henning
Mary was a dear lady. I enjoyed working with her in several Dillon stores. I was meat dept mgr & she was deli mgr. It was fun working with her. We had laughs together & some sad times too. She will be missed by us all.
I remember Mary as a fantastic and fun young lady in school. I have had limited contact with her throughout the years, but will always remember her for the wonderful person she was…May God comfort you all. Cecily Holliday class of ’62
