Mary was an avid gardener and cook. Her meals celebrating Christmas were the stuff legends are made of. Mary will be remembered for the deep love she felt for her family and friends.
We would like to thank the doctors, nurses and PSWs with special thanks to Natalie and Jessica for the excellent care and comfort they provided for Mary in her final days.
