Condolences & Tributes

Add A Condolence

Aunt Mary was such a sweet person. When we were younger my sister and I would visit New York for the summer and while we were there my grandma would stop us by to see Aunt Mary. We would just sit there eat and talk(her food was so good 😂). As we got older we didn't go up there for the summers anymore so we didn't see her as much. But we would still talk from time to time on the phone and she would always ask about us. Get your rest Aunt Mary. We will always love you ❤️

Aunt Mary was the sweetest most loving aunt and would always make us feel welcome whenever we visited her in NY. Going to visit her during our time spent in New York was one of the highlights of our summers for both me and my brother. The love that she poured into others will continue to live on. We love and miss you so much Aunt Mary but we know that you are at peace with the Lord.

For those of you who knew , have met or had a relationship with my Aunt Mary, you know the type of woman she was. Aunt Mary one of my favorite aunts as well as, one of the sweetest people I've ever met. She was the epitome of a "Godly" lady. I enjoyed spending weekends in Brooklyn with her when I was growing up. She'd take my shopping, cook my favorite foods ( and Lord knows she could cook, OMG) and we'd go to church. When you left her house, you will have a bag full of Any and everything from trinkets to underwear to money, Lol. I'm going to miss you soooo much. But I will forever cherish our LONG conversations and when I want to hear your voice, I will go to my videos and listen to the last Conversation we had. I hate to see you go, but I'm so glad you're not here on this earth suffering so go take your rest sweet lady because I know without a shadow of a doubt you're resting with the Lord. Please know that I love you and I hope to see you again. I love you to Life, your Neice, Donna

Sharing in your loss. Condolences to the family. My sister's and I enjoyed spending time with Aunt Mary Emma growing up. She was full of energy, warm hugs and the best spoon-licking delightfulnes! I always knew auntie was going to wash our hair...and make her little niece's look adorable. She was genuine, gracious, so very gentle, and absolutely loving. We will miss you. You will remain in our hearts forever. Sincerely,April Holley

I will always remember Aunt Mary E. The first time I visited Brooklyn without my parents, I was about 12 years old. That's when I think I met Aunt Mary. During that one week in NY, we bonded. Many years went by when we had not talked or seen each other. However, she remained on my list of "favorite Aunts", to this day and forever. I thank God that a few years ago we reconnected via phone, thanks to my cousin Wendy. We talked several times since then and were able to share our affectionate feelings and memories from so long ago with one another. We both had vivid fun memories from that period. I will miss her and I regret not being able to see her one more time before earning her Angle Wings.

Love you Aunt Mary Emma, and, may you Rest in Heaven⚘️⚘️⚘️⚘️

My condolences I will always love ❤️ My godmother I miss you so much but I know you are watching over 💔 us.Until we meet again rest mommy

Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
