Condolences & Tributes
Add A CondolenceMary was such a beautiful person. I worked with her at High Point Regional and she always had words of wisdom. She assisted with a beautiful wedding shower for me in 1979. I loved her dearly!
I'll extend my condolences to the family. For the past 30 years she has been my sister in Christ. I knew her from William Penn but did not have a relationship with her (she was a senior and I was a freshman) I will miss her!
