Jim, Kathy and family, we were so sorry to hear of Mary's passing. Please accept our deepest sympathies. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Mary will be missed, she was a wonderful person.
My deepest sympathy to all the Black family. I loved to have little chats with Mary about flowers, etc. She will be greatly missed. Remember the good times. Sincerely, Marg.
My heart is with you at this time. Mary is very dear to me too. Aside from the laughter and love she shared, she also taught me how to fundraise and once again this year the The STEPHEN LEWIS FOUNDATION will benefit from a seed she sowed so many years ago with her rummage sales at OLIVET church. Love to everyone Marilyn martin
