The very 1st time I met Miss Mary, I immediately came to the conclusion and said to myself, "Miss Mary is a very humble lady, a very kind lady and a soft spoken lady." The few times that I was in her company or not, I became very fond of her and loved her. I know in my heart that she was a good mother, and her children are blessed to have had a mother like her. To Sharon and her siblings, I pray God gives you all the peace, comfort and contentment that I know you all need. I know for a fact that you all loved your mom and if love could have kept her here, she would still be here; but God loved her best. I can say and do believe that Miss Mary is resting in the arms of Jesus. Good night, good night Miss Mary, good night down here, good morning up there!!!!
