Deeply sorry to hear of the loss of Mary. A sweetheart who was always smiling and had a kind and generous heart. Even though she will be greatly missed by those who loved her, she is brightening up some place new.

It would be hard to imagine a better person than Mary Gilson. With her Irish humor, her incredibly strong faith and a heart as big as all outdoors, she was an extraordinary friend. And in Jimmy she found the perfect mate. She adored him just as much as he adored her. Her family and friends have suffered a tremendous blow, but we can all take heart in knowing that Mary had one of the fastest trips through the pearly gates ever. I hope that Jimmy and Mary's family can find solace in their many happy memories of this remarkable individual.

, they say the best people leave this world early to early and Mary was one of the most beautiful souls with a big heart she was beyond lovely with a strong faith. There is no doubt in my mind God was waiting for her with open arms. I cant begin to say how sad the world will be without her and I know shes resting in peace. Prayers for her family.
