I hadn't seem thus notice before but it saddens me greatly. I have known Mary, and her family since we were in Kindergarden.
Through all the years, she was a sweet and gentle girl but also stubborn and persistent.
I remember spending Saturdays with her and Frances. Her Grandmother lived with the family and, on Saturday nights would watch Wrestling. It was my introduction to the sport which we were allowed to watch too. It was funny and fun!
Mary remained my friend even after Grady, until she moved away from Atlanta. I remember being saddened when she sent regrets to come to my wedding. After that, we never connected again.
Although I think of many who populated our lives through the school years, my life got very complicated after 1965 as a Navy wife.
I always pictured Mary as content and hoped she was lived as she deserved.
Rest in Peace, dear friend.
