I worked with Mary in the Voke SPECIAL ED department until she left. She was a joy to work with and had Irish ☘️ twinkle in her eye. She ran a tight ship but would help the staff out gladly when we had questions. I loved chatting with Mary when we had questions , often with a funny remark . May God hold you in the Palm of His hand. Condolences to all of Mary’s family with special wishes for Mary Jo who was part of our early SPED family. May God hold Mary in the Palm of his Hand.Q

Mary- I cannot believe how many years have gone by since you were our Secretary in the Special Education department at the Voke. You always has twinkle in your eye and something up your sleeve. Although I have not seen you in years , I will never forget those years and all the laughs we had in the department. May God bless you and keep you safe in His Hands.

Esther: I worked with Mary and even attended her wedding. She was a dear friend and was always wonderful talking on the phone. She always had so much to say and was very informative. She even visited me with Mark at one time here in California. I was saddened to hear of her passing. With talking to her I never had a clue that there anything wrong with her. I will miss you Mary and may you rest in peace. May your memory be eternal. Mary: Mary would come to Sunday Dinners every once in a while. She would also babysit my downs daughter Debbie whom she loved and Debbie loved Mary. They had a good time together. Mary was full of love and fun to be with. We all loved Mary. I will miss you Mary. May God Rest Your Soul.
