I enjoyed talking to Mary about decorating & animals. She had a good sense of humor & was a very strong lady. Wishing her peace
Mary and I shared many days of carefree childhood fun in Westphalia. She was a wonderful friend and confidant. She will be missed; but those beautiful memories will help to keep her spirit alive. Have fun frolicking in the heavens my dear friend. Until we meet again. ߒ“
So many memories of spending time with Mary when she stayed with Grandma and Grandpa Reinsch across the street! You will be missed, but fondly remembered, Mary!
