Mary and my late sister Maurita King worked together for many years at Supportive Services. They were good friends, and Maurita talked about her often. Like my sister, Mary died too soon. My sympathy to her husband and children.

Dear Ed and family,
We are so deeply saddened by the passing of Mary.
We saw the love and devotion you had towards Mary over the last several years and how close and loving your family is. You have been truly blessed by God.
We pray for all of you; the comfort in knowing that God is now taking care of her.
God bless.
Sincerely,
From your co-workers at Gas City.
