Mary is forever etched in my mind as one of the strongholds of faith from my formative years at First Alliance. She was so sweet and faithful. We pray that God will hold you close during your grieving and comfort you with loving memories and the assurance that we will all meet again. Her homecoming was just sooner than ours.
So sorry to hear of your loss. Mary was a sweet lady. She will be missed by all, especially by my mom. Her and mom made good room mates. May God comfort you in this difficult time.
