  5. Jeff and I are so sad to hear about Mary passing away. She was my Sunday School teacher when I was at MAC (1980-1982) and I have such fond memories of our parties. She always listened to our problems and was so much fun to be around. She was a wonderful example to us. It has been many years since we had seen Mary and Jim but we wanted you to know that they are special to us and they made a big difference in our lives. Your family is in our prayers.

This is a tough time for you, but the very best of times for your Mom! How wonderful to know she's finally face to face with her Lord and Savior! We celebrate her life and legacy along with you.
