Mary was an amazing woman and I am honored to have been a part of her Family. She always had a smile for company and friends always feeding somebody. Her home was opened to all. I have many great memories of Mary who taught me how to make bread lol here was this little woman older than me preparing 50 loaves of bread not even sweating and I was about to faint. She was a woman who could do anything and was always there for anyone who needed help. She will be missed but I am sure there was grand celebration in heaven the day she left us. - Posted by: Kimberly Bruce (Mom-in-law) on: Mar 30, 2019
