Mary will always be remembered for the love she had for her family. Her goal in life was to support and be present for them. She always put her family first and knew what each person needed to feel special and loved. You could always find Mary in her chair either working on a crossword puzzle or making a note in her planner; most of the time drinking a diet soda. She will always be remembered for her phone calls to just check in and make sure you were okay. She has touched and made an impact on many. Mary will always be loved and never forgotten.
