In the afternoon on
Saturday, February 3rd, 2007, our mother lost her over 3-year battle
with lung cancer. She touched many lives
as a wife, mother, grandmother, daughter, sister, aunt and friend. She taught us all how to live our lives to
the fullest and love every minute of it.
We will always love and remember her.

God saw you were
getting tired,
and a cure was not
to be,
so he put his arms
around you
and whispered
“Come with me”.
With tearful eyes
we watched you,
and saw you pass
away.
Although we loved
you dearly,
we could not make
you stay.
A golden heart
stopped beating,
hard working hands
at rest.
God broke our
hearts to prove to us,
He only takes the best.
Mom definitely wanted to be able to help the
medical community by study after she passed on, and to also help the animals.
Mary’s wishes were
that her body be donated to MedCure for Medical research on Lung Cancer. That
wish was Granted!
In Loving memory of our Mother.
Also, she sure loved animals, and always
wanted to visit wild life reserves, especially the wild game reserves in
