in honor of Mary.

My prayers are with you all! Mary - you were a great friend, confidant, encourager, generous, loving person who was always positive and made me laugh! I know God put you in my path when I came to Tennessee. You were family. Your home was always open and there was always food. Fresh home cooked food - from the garden, lake, creek or sea. What memories I have. Too many to write. Thank you for being there all those many years. I will never forget the difference you made in my life. Thank you for being you.

Mary was a true long-time, dearly loved person! Mary was an inspiration in my life. We enjoyed many visits, talking, watching the birds, prepared garden goodies, and more! Mary was the best of everything in life!! Love and admired her needle work, her fish fry will never be beat by anyone! Mary was a friend, sister and I loved her like a mother. Mary is a legend! RIP Mary! Until we meet again!

Too many memories to ever share them all. She was selfless. Always put everyone else first. She loved nature, being outdoors, fishing and being near the water. Everyone that knew her loved her. She could out work many a man and I watched her do it more than once in a tobacco field. The men would be begging her to slow down! She was very frugal. I’ve seen her stretch groceries to make sure no one left hungry on more than one occasion and her fish fry’s were the talk of Tennessee. Nothing ever went to waste with her. She would carefully take the tape off Christmas packages in order to save the paper. You would see it again next Christmas for sure. She was strong, a survivor, resilient, capable, and if I can even be half of what she was, then I’ve accomplished something. Thanks for being my shining example Momma. I’ll always love you and I look forward to the day when we will be together again.

Was a very remarkable woman. I remember for Thanksgiving and Christmas she would make me a little ham because I didn’t eat turkey, she would go out of her way to be nice to people. She was a great lady and I will miss her. Love you Mom!
