Dear Jim, Tom and Nick - I am so sorry to hear of your mother's passing - my dear dear cousin Mary - From the time we were young and she had five brothers to deal with, we would be there for each other. Growing up, getting married, having children, we were never apart. Many parties at her house and our children playing together and still are good friends. Thanksgiving days would bring us even more days to be together, since your father Ted and my husband George would go hunting . Mary and I would be home doing the cooking, either her house or my house. She was a wonderful mother to all of you and she loved to cook and make scrumptious meals always and her baking was exquisite. After Mary moved to Kansas I missed her tremendously. We spoke often on the phone and still kept in touch. Miss you Mary - rest in peace Memory eternal!
