I am so sorry to hear this. I went to school with Mary. My last name was different at that time. It would have been Thomas or possibly even Ferren. I remember when I spent time staying with Mary and her family when they lived in the Highland Park area. This happened at a time when our basement caught fire and smoke damage had to be cleaned up from our house before we could safely reside there again. Mary and her family were kind enough to allow me to stay in their home while this was being done. It's been forever since I've seen or talked to anyone in the family. The last I knew, Mary had moved to CA., I believe. She did stop to visit once after that and it sounded like she was happy and doing well, I'm happy to remember that. Again, I am so very, very sorry for your loss. My heart goes out to all of you.
