Ms.Mary was a shinning light daily .. An Angel of happiness always. SHE LOVED EVERYONE.. I only had just gotten to known her for about 8 months as a guest at Cracker Barrel. No she was like family.. she will be missed .
One of the first people that became family to me when I moved to Mobile. You would come see me ant work every week and I couldn’t wait for you to tell me some kind of story of your life experiences & family. You were filled with love, compassion and God. One of the most sweetest souls you could ever come across. You were truly an angel who was heaven sent. RIH Mrs. Mary 🤍 Praying for Mr. Joe & all family during this time.
