I first met Mary in 1995 when my family moved to Trophy club.  Our girls Cara and Melissa were in same grade.  I also had the pleasure of being Cara's math teacher in 6th grade.  Mary was always ALWAYS there for her girls.  If any teachers needed help or goodies here came Mary loaded up.  She and I had many invigorating conversations about education and brownies and Girl Scouts and so on.  The last time I saw her was in Tom Thunb. A place we must have had hundreds of 30 minute block the isle conversations.  Mary was soooo proud of her girls. I will miss you sweet lady.  I KNOW that angels swooped you to heaven to celebrate the mysterys of Christ.  Good night for now.

Mary was so wonderful and was always so kind to us. She will be very missed. We love you Dave, Cristen & Cara ❤

Praying for the Peace of God to comfort Y'all!  Doodle and I wanted to share the last conversation we had with Mary.  At Cara & Josh's wedding Mary came over to share her experience with meeting God!  She said, that it wasn't that she wasn't a believer but God took that extra step and revealed himself to her!  She knew we Believed Her!  When she met our baby grandson Dashel who was born with Down Syndrome Mary said that He is God's purest Love here on earth!❤ Beautiful Words that bring all of us comfort!  We have so many Wonderful memories of our family times together!  Miss You Mary God Bless You Dave, Cristen & Cara

Love you Mags ❤

One thing I ask from the LORD, this only do I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple.
Psalm 27:4 

Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:4-7

I looked through all 176 pictures. Beautiful Mary. Growing up, I spent almost every day at your house. I remember eating potato sticks on your kitchen floor, having dance parties, sleepovers, and lots of swimming. You were always so welcoming and loving; always making sure everybody was always taken care of. Now your job here is done and I pray for your eternal peace.

My heart breaks for your sweet family! Your Mother and wife fiercely loved her family. I will never forget how much pride and joy she took in her daughters. I know without a doubt you've now got an extra special angel being just as fierce from the heavens above. She no doubt left her mark on this world in many ways, but the legacy of such pride and joy she left in her family will have a ripple effect for decades to come!

Dear Dave, Cristen & Cara
I am praying for you all to have the strength to get you through this most difficult time.  I myself have been having a very hard time with Mag's passing, but I know she is pain free now and at peace.  She was truly the most valiant warrior that I know in her effort to deal with her horrible disease.  I love all the beautiful pictures of Mag and it brings back happy memories and that is what I want to remember.  May God Bless each and every one of you and just know that she is looking down and praying for all of you now.  She is your special angel!

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. David and girls know that we are praying for you that God will comfort your heart at this difficult time.

My very deepest sympathy to Mary's family.  She was a very special friend to me.  We grew up together and learned how to raise our daughters while living in Brussels.  I'll never forget those times.  Prayers will continue for all of you.
