We are saddened by the loss of Mary - She brought sunshine into all she knew. Our heartfelt sympathy to Robert and MJ as well as all those who loved her. One of my fondest memories of Mary is the coonskin hats she made for all of us kids out of an old coat she had. She was very loving, always smiling and had a very large heart. To this day, whenever I drink hot chocolate with toast I think of Mary.
Much Love and Prayers, Genny and Dave

Dear Robert Lawton, and MJ Lawton,
Paul and I wanted to say how sorry we feel about your loss.  Mary was a model wife and mother.  She was always such a sweet, loving, and kind person, a true treasure.  You have been wonderful friends for so many years.  Robert, Paul says that more than once you and Mary touched his heart when he needed the help of real true friends, you were there for him.
  This life can take us so far away from each other and yet we carry those we LOVE in our hearts where ever we may go.  When find the Truth of it all, we can look to the future for a better life and Trust our Creator and our leader because they have proved trustworthy.  
This gives us HOPE.  Never Give Up. She is Safe!  Take care of yourselves.  You are in our prayers.  We send Agape Love to you Both,
Lesley and Paul Rothrock

Mary was more than a sister-in-law to me a spiritual sister, dear friend, over 60th years serving Jehovah, attending Christians meetings, Assemblys, Conventions, playings dominoes . she will be missed but we look forward to seeing her in the resurrection

Robert and MJ,  I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your spouse and mother and my dear sister Mary.  I haven't seen either of you for many years but still remember the times we had together while attending the meetings in Coldwater, but I moved from Michigan 30 years ago and live in California. You are in my prayers and we can welcome Mary back in Jehovah's new world, which we know will come soon.  I am sending my love to the both of you.  Jean (Lane) Graves.

Robert and MJ, 
I am very sorry to hear of Mary's passing.  Teddie let me know right away. Mary has always been one of the kindest, sweetest ladies I know. She was always very welcoming to me when ever I would see her. Robert and MJ... you two take care of each other now. MJ... call me if you need anything.

Robert and MJ.  I am so very sorry. I wish I could be there with you. I love Mary so much and we know that she is now in the safest place possible,  in Jehovah's memory.  Please know that my heart is breaking with yours. Love and hugs and prayers.  Teddi

Sending Our Heartfelt Condolences to Uncle Robert and MJ.  I love that New Life Begins When Our Loved One WALKS THE STREET OF GOLD. Tim and I both have Good Memories of Mary that will last forever. As they too will help get us through in Celebrating her Life.
