Mary never knew a stranger, only friends she had not met yet. She was a woman with many hats, the family encyclopedia, the one everyone called for advice and made everyone feel loved. Working at Jackson Hill Marina, she became Nanny to all of the kids and enjoyed meeting all of the people. She taught us so many things except how to live without her.
