Not just my Mother, she was my best friend and the void she left will never be filled. My heart is broken, but she would want me not to be sad, but to celebrate her life. She is now walking with Jesus. Although I will miss her greatly, I know will see her again in heaven.

... Bit of Positive, Courageous, Motivational and Fearful Message from Mary and her family..."Hey Sammy there's Gator in these waters!" Yes, that was shouted as I was learning how to waterski behind their family boat. It worked! I was successful in getting up on 3rd try and NEVER once letting the ski rope go. It was in early 70's at place called Golden Head State Park south of Jacksonville, FL. It's funny how things you never forget and so is Mary, many wonderful memories! From Sam "Sammy" Cook, Nephew Son of Jack & Seiko Cook (Savannah, Ga)

I will always remember how feisty Mary was throughout the time that I was able to know her. She was fun, loving, caring, and always willing to lend a hand if she could. The world is a lot smaller without her~ God's Peace to everyone who calls Mary "family"~ ++++

My heart felt condolences go out to the surviving family of Mary Adams.
Many memories still live in my heart and mind of times shared with this family through marriage to her sister Linda.
Mary was a good, fun loving person, who stood up for what she believed in.
She will be missed by her extended family as well as her immediate family.
May God bless all family memories as you go through these trying times.
Mary, I wish you God speed, and may you RIP.

She was my Sister, My buddy , My Friend, her passing left a void in my life than will never be filled. a long time ago she gave me a suncatcher in the shape of a heart that says "CHANCE MADE US SISTERS, HEARTS MADE US FRIENDS" I will cherish it always because it is the truth. We had many
adventures together from the time I was very young and most were great memories. I will always LOVE and miss my sister Mary. The only comfort I have is that she is resting with our Lord Jesus. I pray your lost is not as great as mine and that God will lighten your pain.
Love to all Linda D. Willis
