I am so sorry for your loss. I knew Mary from the American Cancer Society office in Lincoln. She was a good friend even though we did not stay in touch after she left ACS. She will be greatly missed.
Please accept my sincere condolences for the loss of Mary. Psalms 34:18 says that God is near to those brokenhearted. Draw close to God and he will grant you peace & comfort during this grievous time.
My deepest condolences in your loss of Mary. I treasured our friendship that lasted over 20 years. She was so thoughtful and supportive – I will miss her greatly.
