It makes me so sad to find that Mary has passed. As a young preteen living down the street and around the corner, I would often visit Mary. We would sit in her garden and talk. I would help her pick beans and other veggies, play with baby Rachel, and laugh. I never felt “seen” at home as a kid. I felt seen and heard with Mary. Eventually, Mary and Bob asked me to babysit Rachel. It was my very first job as a babysitter, and I loved it. Rachel was precious!! I can still see her sweet little face. To know she’s a mom just makes my heart happy. As a grandmother myself now, I know exactly how happy, and proud, Mary must have been to be blessed with those grandbabies!! She adored being a mom. I pray that the memory of her is a blessing to all whom loved her. Rest in Peace, my friend. ❤️💔❤️
