Mary was just a lovely person who never failed to make me feel comfortable and welcome in her presence! Her sweet voice was always a wonderful greeting in her many years at VNA. She will be missed by many!

she always had such a bright spirit and positive attitude. It was a joy to work with her at VNA and to know her over the years.

I worked with Mary at VNA, she had a special gift of answering the phone and talking to that person like they were the only person that she needed to attend to that day, never rushed anyone or made anyone feel like she didn't have all the time in the world to listen to their problem. That is such a special gift and I've met very few people who had it. She was a very special, warm and wonderful person
