My family and I are sending our deepest sympathy and love in your loss.

I'll always remember my Great Aunt Mary and how pleasant she was to talk and to be around.

I still remember back in 1987, like is was last week, her and Husband Stan being at my wedding and how fun they both were, along with Mary's sister Francis...



Aunt Mary will be severely missed and always in My Heart.



GOD BLESS HER.



Love, The Nash Family Brian, Erin, Sabrina, and Alexandra
