Gary and Family,

My deepest condolences on the passing of Mary. I knew Mary as a very sweet and quiet person. I worked along side of Mary as an admin assistant but in the marketing department at CPG. I had many lunches with Mary and our group of admins. I haven't seen Mary since I left in 2008 as well, but have always held her in my heart. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

My memory of the two of you is when you stopped by the church to drop something off - and Mary was waiting patiently in the car for you. You were off for a drive with the top down and enjoy some sunshine. And later, on my way home, I saw you stopped, sitting eating ice cream together. It's the quiet times when people see you just being yourself that the love you had for one another shone through. Thank you for sharing that with others.

Dear Gary,

I was so sorry to hear about the loss of your wife. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Sincerely,

Kathy Mackay Robertson (RJ 64)

So sorry for your loss. My deepest sympathy. She was a wonderful person.

Gary, What a beautiful obituary. Mary’s picture was lovely as well. I will always remember my times with a Mary...our walks around your yard and watching Jeopardy together. The best part was eating ice cream. Mary loved her maple walnut ice cream. God Bless her and May she rest in Gos’s loving embrace.

Love, Linda and Dan

What a beautiful obituary. She sounds like such a vibrant, interesting person and I'm sorry I never had the opportunity to know her. Gary, I am deeply sorry for your loss.

Sending love and healing wishes,
