I am so sorry to hear about yor dear mother. I met her while my mother Alice Dechant lived at Mt.St. Francis. She was a sweet sweet woman. My Sumpathy, Vicky Gripe

Mike and family, 
We are so sorry to hear of Mary's passing.She was a sweet lady. We will be praying for God's peace and blessing on you all at this time.

Dear Jolene & Mike. We are so sorry for your loss. Thinking of you with love and remembering our wonderful days at St. Mary's. God bless you & your family.

Our hearts go out to you at this time.  We know how very special your mother was to you and how she will be missed.  We hope that you have comfort in knowing that she is in a better place with no more suffering.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.  Love always, Aunt Esther and Uncle Dick

Aunt Mary we'll miss your delicious burritos, brownies, chocolate chip cookies, chocolate cakes, eggs and salsa and all the fun times we had together, especially watching the Apollo 11 landing on the Moon, Oscar Dog (your little "dachshund"), describing Michael and Jolene's culos as little "moons", watching the football games at the Air Force Academy, eating at Mitchell Hall and Fargo's Pizza in Colorado Springs and the smiles you always had for your granddaughter Maria Therese.  Now you are at peace and say "hello" and give a kiss to Celestina (your older sister), Louis (your brother), Joseph (your son), Charles, Floyd, Nono and Nona, Oscar Dog, Janeen, Gigi, Barufa, and Chee-chee bird.  Love, hugs, prayers and kisses.  The O'Brien family.
