Tributes
I so enjoyed working with Mary at the Morrow Fire Department during several elections. She retired soon after I started—I took her place as the token Democrat.
My condolences, especially for Cathy, also a coworker in my past.
Kathy Garringer - Coworker
Aunt Mary was the best women I have ever known, she was so kind and patient with me. The recipes and clothes she made were always filled with love and extra care, her greatest gift to me was her comfort. Being held in her arms was the safest place you could be. Whether you were hurt or just needed a hug she always had love to give. ??
Libby Ray - Great niece
