It's hard to find the best words to express the sadness I feel for Sandra and all Mary's Family. I cherish all my memories of Mary Blanche being best friends growing up. We were together all the time and enjoyed our school and teenage years going uptown and our favorite places Park Theatre and Charlie's place. I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to visit her last week and tell her how much those years mean to me. I moved away and life of raising a Family Took over for both of us. I pray her Family will find some comfort in knowing how much she loved and cherished them. She is soaring now in a beautiful place as Jesus welcomed her home. Sincerely Theresa Ferguson Hawn
