Aunt Mary was very special. She was one of a kind and the sweetest relative I’ve known. One of my fondest memories as a child was of her making blackberry pies from fresh picked blackberries my brother and I picked w/Uncle Stan. I will miss her very much. My thoughts and prayers are with Merilee, Jo Anne and my Aunt Virginia.
Much Love and sympathy,
Matt and Donna Stephens

Thank you, Aunt Mary, for giving me the best summer of my entire life when I was 10 yrs. old. You and Uncle Stan were such great role models for me and my brother, Tim, as we had the opportunity to spend time where our mom, Jo, was born and raised. Those wonderful memories are with me always and I’m happy that you are now pain free, with our mom and your loved ones who have gone before you. May you enjoy eternal peace with God in heaven. Love, Tina
To Mom
It has been one year since you have gone away. I miss you very much.
I Love You. May you rest in peace.
from your little Jo :*
