    Mary was one of the kindest souls I know. She and I went to Ewing High School, class of ’79. I moved away, but on occasional trips to New Jersey, would reconnect with Mary and we’d meet for dinner or drinks and reconnect. She was so easy to talk to and always so genuinely interested in what one had to say. Class reunions will not be the same without her, and I will miss her very much. My condolences to all of her family, know that she was well loved by all who knew her.
