Mary loved cooking, collecting recipes and tending to her beautiful flowers, especially her roses. But most importantly she loved her husband and her children. Her grandchildren would often call her mawmaw. She loved capturing every moment in picture form. Mary never met a stranger and everyone who met loved her instantly. She had a sweet spirit that everyone loved. Until we meet again sweet momma.
