My thoughts and prayers are with your family. Your mom was so kind to my mom when she first arrived at Brookside. She was also a table mate in the dining room. She always asked about my day at school when I would bring my mom to the dining room. She always had nice nice conversations with my mom.

Dear sweet Mary, what a special woman you were. We only met once and that was a memorable meeting. We got to know you in just a few days as a very sweet and caring woman. We have often talked about you here in Holland and always said that you looked like Elizabeth Taylor ;). We saw that your large family had a lot of respect for you and cherished you. They will miss you so much. We wish them the best of luck with this. Rest in peace dear niece. ❤️❤️❤️
