Aunty Mary what a beautiful person inside and out. Such a wonderful sister to Anne (my mom). Special memories are 6 of us arriving in whatever crazy vehicle my father John was driving at the time. Your home was always open to us with homemade meals and hours of fun. You will be dearly missed on this earth but a great party is happening in heaven as you reunite with family and friends. - Posted by: Sharon Hodgins (Niece ) on: Jul 24, 2024

Our sincere condolences to Mary's family. I have fond memories from my childhood, of attending Sunday school with Gladys. Mary was a very dear friend to my mom. I pray that you will all feel God's nearness during this time of mourning. - Posted by: Bertha Wiebe (Long time friend) on: Jul 23, 2024
