Mary was a joy to be around and will be sorely missed. She touched so many lives in such a positive way. Her life will be remembered as one lived to the fullest.

Demaris Family, What a powerful legacy your Mother left in the earth for all! She loved everyone and everything and always gave sound wisdom & had true love shed abroad from her heart. She loved the Lord and left a mark in the earth that will never be erased! She will be missed and never forgotten! Continue in her legacy and that of your father's for generations to come. I love you all, (SHAN) Alicia Leveston. (Isaiah 43:19).

Demaris Family,
Your video of your Family shows without a doubt, ETERNAL LOVE shared by all. 

For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is to gain. PHILIPPIANS 1:21

Please find comfort with your family & friends, and keep smiling the beautiful smiles your parents passed on to you.   

Your Friend,   Elva

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

To The Demaris Faimly my thoughts and prayers are with you in this time of grief.                                              Geraldine Patin

My prayers are with you all. Mary was truly a special lady. I was blessed to have found her and to know she was my family. I will miss her kind heart and spunky spirit and our deep conversation regarding our family and our family tree. She was an inspiration to me and will hold a special place in my haert always. Love to you all. I will miss you Mary!

Mary was like a second mother to me. I learned so much from her---like how to make dirty rice and crawfish etouffee--but mostly she taught me that we never really grow old on the inside. 

I enjoyed every minute we spent together over our 23 year friendship. What a big, loving, heart you were blessed with!  I will miss you sweet Mama Mary. Give Danny a big hug from me. 

God, I ask that you wrap your comforting arms around my beloved Betty. I am in awe of your strength. Much love to you, Brenda and Daniel. You were blessed with an amazing Mom and Dad. I loved them both very much and will cherish their memories the rest of my life.

Mrs Demaris I will truly miss you. You were like another grandmother to me and my siblings and we love you for it. Thank you for looking out for us on those days we lost our key to the house when we were younger and couldn't get in the house and for feeding us when we just didn't have enough to eat. I Love You

What a great and wonderful friend and lady.  She will be greatly missed by all her family and a host of friends.

We Loved Her ! !

Brenda - - I am so sorry to hear about your Mother's passing - - it's been almost 10 years since I met her but still remember what a lovely person she was and how she treated me as though we had known each other for years - - my thoughts and prayers are with you as you journey on without her in your daily life - - remain always in God's loving grace.

Beano,Brenda and Betty,
Your MOTHER will truly be missed. Since our birthday is the same day I will definitely say a special Rosary for her. May God keep all of you and your extended family strong. Peace of God be with all.

 BETTY,  Thinking of you  and your family. I know what trying time this is, I just lost my Mom six months ago. God Bless

Dear Betty,Brenda and Daniel,

 I am at a loss for adequate words to express my sadness for you. I had the blessed opportunity of knowing your mom and I know heaven just received one of the most special angels. You are a reflection of your mom in the way your treat people with respect and empathy. Not to mention the way you make each person feel loved. I am so sorry for your loss.

I am here for you during and after this diffcult time in your life. 
Love you all,
Mary & Harold Ness

God saw you getting tired
And a cure was not to be,
So he put his arms around you
And whispered
“Come To Me”
With tearful eyes we watched you,
And saw you pass away,
And although we loved you dearly,
We could not make you stay,
A golden heart stopped beating,
Hard working hands at rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us,
He only takes the best.

Betty, my sincere sympathy to you and your family.Your Mom was a GEM! The image of her smiling face will always be with us. Remembering you in my prayers.
Rosalyn Poche'-Waddleton

Celebrating a life well lived. We will cherish the memories forever.

Brenda, and the Demaris family, my deepest condolences in your loss.  May you all be comforted by your memories and the strength exhibited by Ms Mary.

Mary was a wonderful person and a joy to be around. I am so sorry for your loss.

Brenda, Betty and Beano,
In times like these, may it help you to know that a friend, who also grieved, understands.  May you find comfort in the days ahead by remembering that yesterday, today and tomorrow are in GOD'S hands.
