Just happened across this.  I sat in front of Mary in writing class in our senior year at Wolfson. I remember this amazingly beautiful girl who couldn't wait to get out of school and get out into the real world.  She was a beautiful person and taken far too soon.  I am so sorry to hear of her passing. My condolences to her family.  Stuart Haft

It was a great sorrow that we say goodby to Mary, a very important member of our family. We are enternally thankful that God loaned her to us for awhile. She will forever remin in our hearts and be sorely missed.

I'm sorry for your loss. My prayers are with everyone, family & friends.

Carolyn, Meredith and Gentry family, I am so very sorry for your loss.  There simply are no words.  I wanted you to know that you all are in my thoughts and prayers.  I can't help to remember Mary and her beautiful spirit and smile as a young child as our families shared so many special memories.  Her light will continue to shine bright.  I am comforted to know that my mom is with her smiling from above on all of us. My mom was given a great gift on her birthday (Dec 6) and I hope you find moments of comfort in that.  Sending love, strength and peace...
RIP beautiful Mary- oxo  Katie
