Mary will be so missed! I've loved her since she was my 5th grade Sunday School teacher, 40+ years ago in Woodland Park! She was always such a loving, gentle, encouraging soul! When I became an adult we enjoyed attending some of the same womens' Bible studies and prayer groups! I am blessed to have had her as a friend and Godly example.
