My heart goes out to all of her family. Ms. Mary was a wonderful person and I am glad that I got to know her. She was a patient of mine at her chiropractors office. She always remembered us on our birthdays and on the holidays. I have a beautiful dollie she crochet for me. May God bless all of you during this time and we will be praying for all of you. She was a wonderful person.

During the past few years, Mary and I have become close friends.  Floyd and I have enjoyed many hours with Mary - sometimes just sitting on the front porch talking, playing dominos, having meals together,cried together and worshiped together.  She was a precious lady, generous and caring.  She will be missed in so many ways.floyd and elaine duchesne
