I with Mary on occasion at NJ PAC and got to know her at the Mill. She had been there a while when I arrived and was warm, welcoming and helpful. A very good soul. My dee[est condolences for her family and friends for a terrible loss.
Sincere condolences to the family. I was a classmate of Mary in H.S.
I knew Mary from high school and had a conversation about her interesting work several years ago. I am very sad to hear of her passing and send my condolences to her family
I too knew Mary from high school. She was always active at school a lot. Sad to hear she has passed.
Mary was a very sensitive, intelligent, kind and helpful person. She realized her dreams of working in theater and becoming a grandmother. We´ll miss her at high school reunions.
