I am deeply sadden to learn of Mary's passing. Words can not adequately express my sorry. However, I know God never makes a mistake. To the family, I extend my love, prayers and condolences. I have so many memories of the laughter and good times Mary and I shared. She was a dear friend I could depend on and a confidant when I needed one. I will always remember her kindness. We may have gone in different directions as we matured with our respective families but our love for one another remained. Family, continue to hold onto God's unchanging hands because He will comfort you and continue to hold onto the memories of Mary as they will sustain you. Sandra Franks Harding Charlotte NC
