About Mary
Mary had a special method of making everyone feel as if they were the most important person in the world, and she was there to listen, guide, understand, and love.
Mary was authentic, good, and kind. She was sadly taken from us much too early, at the age of fifty-four. She died of Metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer which has few treatment options.
Her children, fortunately, received and embraced all that was good about their mother and, along with her husband, are determined to follow in Mary’s ability to do good by offering kindness, hope, and answers to those directly and indirectly affected by cancer.
