Dear Ken, Josh, Jonathan, & Stephanne- My heart is heavy to hear of Mary's passing. Growing up, there were numerous days of childhood spent at your house under her loving supervision and care. She had a wonderful heart and was always welcoming and kind. I hope you know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers. I feel so lucky to have known her. With love, Lauren Hall

Ken,
I am so sorry for your loss--I am sure the memories will keep you going--I remember the Beatty Levin days and specifically the weekend getaway--what a wonderful mother! Joshua was the cutest baby and I said to myself I hope I can be just as good a mother as Mary was to Joshua--she inspired me--I cannot forget that weekend! My prayers are with you and you family!!
Love,
Annie

Levin family, remembering the good times is something no one can take from us. Loosing someone we love hurts. Please take comfort in Psalms 29:11, knowing that in difficult times like this, God gives peace and strength.
