Dear Anderson family, I just heard this afternoon that Mary has gone to be with The Lord. In my last conversation with Mary earlier this year she was cheerful and praising God for everything in her life. She praised God for her family and how much you all loved her and how happy she was to have Ray and a large family with children, grandchildren and each day God gave her. She was such a wonderful and caring person who will never be forgotten for her sunny smile and giving ways. No matter what she was going through physically, she never complained and always gave praise to God for ever day she had here for and for what was to come. I will never forget always being welcome in the family home as a child and adult and her always wanting to spread happiness and for the friendship she gave to my mother and father. May you all feel God comfort you as she is now with God and pain free. She will be missed terribly here, but has her place in glory now and forever. Sharon and Mark (Loshaw) Matheus

My heart sank when I heard that Mary had passed. Indeed there is one more angel in Heaven. I remember Mary as always laughing and joyful. May her laughter now ring through Heaven's halls.

I shall always remember my Aunt MaryLou as a happy, loving Aunt. No matter what she went through, she always had laughter in her voice and kind words. I know I will see her in heaven because she knew Jesus Christ as her LORD and Savior. Love to her family. Chris Brenner

Dear Uncle Ray and Kids,

So sorry for all of you, but what a blessing and comfort to know that God's angels escorted her into the Father's loving arms. I am so happy to know that Aunt Mary is no longer suffering because she knew Jesus died for her sins and has accepted His free gift of salvation. For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God; Not of works, lest any man should boast. Ephesians 2:8-9.
Love, Kathy (One of the twins).
