For years, “Miss Mary” was a daily patron of Lolly’s restaurant where she made many new friends and enjoyed socializing in her later years. She enjoyed word searches, watching Jeopardy, and spending time with her family. Mary was an excellent baker and cook. She will be deeply missed by our family, but we know she is at peace with Jesus Christ in Heaven.
