We have very fond memories of Mary and Sher at their cabin in Breckenridge and also enjoyed their visit to our home when we lived in Yorktown VA. Heaven has a sweet pair now.

Mary was a wonderful kindergarten teacher at Longfellow for many, many years. She was always so proud of her family and their place up in Breckenridge. She will be missed.

She was the best grandma anyone could ever ask for! All the memories of her reading book after book to not only myself, but, to my childern....while sitting on her lap.
And most all of our favorite memories.... would probably be....making and decorating our very own pan of sugar cookies.... every single year.
She is my role model, as how I want to be a grandma, when that time comes!
You are loved and missed greatly grandma!!!
