What a beautiful life lived of humility, faithfulness, and love that Mary lived to her God and family. It is easy to make comparisons to another person of that same name.
Isn't it special that she gets to spend "Easter" with our Lord?
I look forward to seeing her lovely smile again.
Cares all past - Home at last - Ever to rejoice.

You know that I love your family (you are, after all, MY family)! And I know that you will miss Aunt Mary terribly. I also know that you are more than OK with her meeting Jesus!! Blessing to you, Len and Deenie, and your kids and grandchildren. Prayers that you will be comforted during this time and the weeks ahead. Love you!! Robin
