Memories and Condolences
for Mary McAllister

Mary Kay was my classmate at Mount St. Scholastica College in Atchison, KS our freshman year. Although she left Atchison after only one year, she was always extremely generous both to the college and to the Sisters at Mount St. Scholastica. I admired and appreciated her, especially when we served together on the Benedictine College Board of Directors, and will keep her in my prayers.

I am one of the women who received a scholarship to Benedictine College from Mrs. McAllister. I would not be the person I am today or have the opportunities I do if it weren't for her generosity. I am eternally grateful for her kindness. Mrs. McAllister and her family will always be in my thoughts and prayers. I am so sorry for your loss.
