This memorial website was created in memory of our sister Mary. Please share your memories and photos, hold your friends and family close, and find comfort in the knowledge that she is at Peace.
The Twins. We started as a pair and shared so many milestones together.
You lived life on your own terms. In Jr. High you took Hunters Safety to deer hunt with Dad and as a senior you received the Home Economics Award. You were incredibly loyal and never predictable.
A core piece of me is missing, but I am even more saddened that your boys have lost your passionate love here on earth so soon. What a passionate mom! I can only imagine your joy at becoming a Grandmother or "Memaw". I am confident your soul is their guardian angel and you continue to watch over them with the same passion.

Mary you were a beautiful friend so many years ago and your beauty will shine forever. Although life journeys us in many directions, I have such warm memories of our time together in high school. I smile when I think of learning to drive together in driver's ed, being in study hall, and seeing you years later at a reunion. Rest in peace dear Mary, know you are and always will be remembered.
I did not know Mary very well. My memories of high school are somewhat vague, but if I had to pick one adjective for Mary it would be ‘kind.’ And there really is not a higher compliment. Those school years are sensitive years, at least they were for me, and I don’t remember ever being greeted with anything other than kindness by Mary. Such a sweet smile. I really liked her and remember her as a quieter, gentle person. I’m so sad that she had to leave us so early. My heartfelt condolences to the family.
I haven't seen aunt Mary for many years but the memories I have resonate in my mind to this day. My favorite times were fishing with her and papa at the lake in the summertime. Papa would keep his travel trailor at the lake which was a safe house away from the mosquitos. In the morning Mary and I would dig worms excitedly for fishing that day. She would yell at me for getting my hands to close to the shovel end probably because my blood would scare the fish. We would fish all day through mosquitos, ticks, and snagged lines. I didn't know it then but she was a tom boy before I knew what a tom boy was. One time she bought purple plastic worms. We fished off the docks and caught some small bass which made her happy because we both thought they wouldn't work. I think about that moment every once in a while fishing on a lake swatting mosquitos and using plastic worms
Mary, rest in peace. It's been years but I still remember cutting through the back yards when we were young to play at each other's houses and filling in on paper routes....many fond memories from those school years. Be blessed and know you were loved by many.
My Dear Sweet Mary.. Thank you for all the calls over the years. Even from a far we enjoyed our special bond. I am sad I couldn't hold you in my arms one more time. Remenber you would always come into my bed at night for extra hugs. Loved it. Love you for ever. I know John has his arms around you now along with mom and dad. I see your smile and will be so happy to see you later in Heaven.
Mary, so many years since we last saw each other but we finally connected through social media. You gave me encouragement when times were tough on me and I hope I was able to help you along when you needed it this last year. You served others well and now you may rest with your mom, dad and John and so many others RIP Mary.

This is the place Mary's ashes were scattered. This was her wish and a place she loved. I wanted to experience a sunrise there, so all the video and photos are from that morning. There were fishermen, surfers and paddle boarders quietly starting a beautiful day. What a beautiful and peaceful place.
