“Love & final words to our dear friend, Mary...a friend for 57 years-never had an argument.....just shared stories, family news and times together. The 4 boys were the central interest in the growing up years. We shared gatherings with her family & extended family at her home. During these later years, we brought pizza & Mary served her wonderful Greek pastries. We would just reminisce about the past years. Mary always spoke of love for children & pride in her grandchildren. Renee & Jack”
