Mary, I just dont have the words that will explain how much you meant to me. You were one of a kind, and it will never be the same without you. You were always so bubbly and full of energy, I could tell how much you liked being a Red Hatter and everyone loved being around you.
We go back a long time, in the 60s when Liz and I were running buddies. I loved spending the night at your house with Liz and your family. I enjoyed our trips to the Red Hat dinners, and enjoyed our ride, and our conversations about past and the present. You always knew how to light up a party. I miss you so much already. Your family will miss you more than you ever even suspected. You know its not the same without their mom, and grandma, and Aunt, and a friend.
I know you are holding hands with God while he is taking you on the Tour of your life. There is no doubt in my mind or anyone else where you are at this minute. . In the mean time, please put in a good word to God for me and we will see you again. I am so sorry you were so sick. I Love you and I will never forget you.----Irene Cantrell
