To my Best Friend/Other Mom Mary,
I am truly blessed to have had you in my life. You were and I know will continue to be my one and only ?Constant?. You were there for me when everyone else abandoned me. You were always there to listen, to lend a shoulder or to tell me that I was not crazy. You were also the only one who would tell me the truth and not let up until I got it. You have not only been my best friend, the one person I could always count on, but you have been my Mother. You were there to wipe away my tears, to share in the happiest times in my life or just be there to chat, no matter what time of the night or day it was. Almost all of my childhood memories have you in them. You always made me feel like I was worth something, that I was special. No other person on this earth has done that for me. You supported me in the most trying times in my life. You were always happy to hear me and I you. Thank you just cannot express the gratitude I feel to have had you in my life and for everything you have done for me. I have faith that one day we will be together again, that is what gets me through the day. I do just hope that my children turn out half as wonderful as your s have. I miss you so much!
Love Always,
Shannon

Dear Bill, John, Bob, Laura, Billy, and Becky

We are so sorry to hear about your mom. We all have such wonderful memories of the special "Vernon Avenue Club". We think it was prerequisite that you had to be a family of at least 3 children to qualify to buy your home. I think there were 18 children alone on our side of the block. Those years on Vernon are treasuer times for all of us. The Chase family were responsible for many great times but let's not forget the infamous "block parties" that were the summer's last hurrah. We still have some great photo's of the talent shows.

Your mom had such a winning way and the broadest smile even when she graciouly delivered "Mr. Chips" at our door steps. Mary loved her animals and everyone elses. You have often been in our thoughts and will continue to pray for all of you during this great time of loss. Our family loved your mom and treasured her friendship.

To the family of Mary and her many loved ones.......Although I have lost contact with Mary over the last few years, I cannot even begin to express the sadness that I am feeling right now. Mary was a very giving, fun and loving person. She made an positive impact on everyone she came in contact with. The memories of
Vernon Ave in Brookfield will always be
treasured and hold a very special place in my heart. The fun and memories that we shared with our children will never be forgotten. The 4th of July parades, the big wheel races, picnics on the front lawn, leaf pile jumping and sprinkler/swimming pool afternoons, learning to ride bikes, and attending our sons' baseball games,
are times that not only my children will treasure, but I will always treasure as a parent as well. Mary taught me how to have fun and make special memories with my boys. Those memories will always stay with me. Mary and I also shared special times as close neighbors and friends. The late night coffee chats, Wilton cake decorating, "early bird" day after Thanksgiving shopping, and pac-man competitions helped me get through the challenging and exhausting days of taking care of a family. Mary was a very special person who has been given a very special place to continue her life showing love and compassion. My heart aches for all of her loved ones who will miss her Remember to treasure all the good times and the memories. Mary was always a very happy person, and she wouldn't want anything less from all of us.

My thoughts and my heart are with all of you during these very sad days.

To Mary Ellen's family-you had the honor of being her life. I have know her since she was a little girl, I remeber how she played with my sick sister for hours to amuse my sister. She had a laugh and love of life few of us know. She held a very important place in all of our hearts. Prayers and thoughts to her husband and children and also to her Mother Shirley and all her brothers and sister.

To my Godmother and loving Aunt. Your kindness will never be forgotten. I still reminisce fondly about sleeping over at your home in Brookfield and being put to sleep by the sound of ocean waves only to be abruptly woken up by Bo, the dog that we could practically ride as a horse. And even though you pushed Steve off the steps which cause his permanent scar on his face, I'll always love you. :-) I am blessed to have had you in my life and I know that I'm a better person because of it. You will be greatly missed in our family as well as within the community of your friends and former co-workers. Easter will never be the same without your Jello eggs and super sticky Rice Kripsy treats, but we will manage through and likely go home home a with few less calories. You will remain forever in my heart, I miss you tremendously already, and until we meet again in heaven, I will miss you with each passing day.

I love and miss you,
David

I will miss my dear auntie Mary. She was one of the most lovely people in my life. Her thoughtfulness and caring heart is unmatched. I will never forget the many years I spent with her and my cousins in Brookfield - they are some of my most dearest memories. With as close as our family is, she will be sorely missed at every function. My children will never forget how considerate she was toward them, and how many times that she made them feel as if they were her own grandchildren. I love you Auntie Mary, with all my heart.
To my dearest cousins that I can consider as brothers and sisters: You all are in my thoughts at this time, and I cannot imagine how you are feeling. You all are carrying a large piece of her with you every where you go, and she is reflected in your faces and your caring nature. You all are beautiful people because of her, and for that her love will live on always.
Love you all - Angel
