I worked with Mary at a trucking company where she entered freight bills and other paper work. She was the most accurate person I have ever known. She had the best accuracy in the entire company. But the thing I remember about her most was her amazing laugh and sense of humor. I remember laughing until my sides hurt from her antics. She had a pleasant and bright manner. Mary, rest in peace.

My sincere sympathy for her son's and her new grand baby and her family. I truly am very sorry for your loss. She was a lot of fun and had a wild laugh. I am very sorry that I could not make it to visit the family and other people that knew Mary and loved her. I will try to make it to the funeral in the morning, but I am not sure yet; as I have been unable to walk due to a surgery. If not then; please let it be known that I am thinking of you all. She will be missed I am sure. My blessings to you all who knew Mary.
Her friend from long ago

If I were able, I would definitely be attending Mary's services but I live in Indiana and I am unable to be there. I loved Mary, I will never forget her for all of my life and I just know she's saving my place until we meet again. My love and sympathy to all the Baysinger/VanHaaften families. I am certain Mary will be watching over you all...
