Maureen, Linda, Jimmy, Theresa and families,
How Blessed you are to have Mary as your mother and grandmother and sister. I remember her hospitality and kindness as a teenager - and I thank God for putting us together years later in Florida. I will always consider her a Blessing in my life, as I know it was God's grace that not only put us together in this life, but for all eternity.
May God grant you peace to ease the pain in your hearts, by remembering the quality of life Mary enjoyed.
Deepest Sympathy,
Ruth and Rocky Kressler
