We are extremely sorry for your loss. We always enjoyed Mary crossing the street and hanging out on the porch for a little while and just talking. She was Rick's favorite neighbor on the street. Leavitt Street won't be the same.

I am so sorry about Mary. You are in my thoughts and prayers. I really can't believe she is gone. Every time I hear a Stones song I am going to think of her. I'll never forget her getting by security to bring you crackers.
