It was a day of rejoicing in Heaven when Mary was called home. The pain and suffering was over and the burdens of chronic illness lifted.

Mary was a devoted housewife, mother, grandmother and sister. Always unselfish and generous with her family and friends, she worked alongside her husband Joe throughout their 50 years of marriage in various business ventures including the management of the Tehachapi Airport facility for 20 years and Townco Lumber Yard & Hardware in Mojave, California.

She adored her family and she worked tirelessly to provide a home sweet home. She was the perfect example of what a woman should be.

Your memory lived within us
Time can never erase our love for you
Till we meet again
"AND STILL THE WATER RUNS"
