My great Aunt Mary was a wonderful loving woman. As her great nephew, my childhood is full of many happy memories of the time she always had for my siblings and I. She will be greatly missed but never forgotten and i know my late father, her sisters and many others will be waiting to welcome her into Heaven. RIP Aunt Mary
