I knew Mary from her years at Townhouse Bakery and also from volunteering at Canton Good Samaritan. I will miss her sunny smile! Sending sincere sympathy.
we are sending alot of prayers for the family for comforting. i have so many good memories of Mary. There was a time I stayed with her in town when dad and mom went to the black hills. and a few more times when mom worked at nights. Again. We are so sorry for your loss.
