Guestbook

  1. My mother knew Mary for many, many years. Also, as we would go to Discount Shoes, my mother and myself would always go through her lane. She always had a smile and so sweet. I am sorry for your loss.

  2. Beverly Duff, niece.
    Rest in peace Aunt Mary. May the Angels set you free to fly to the heavens to be with Debra, Grandma & Grandpa, Mildred & all family members.

  3. Mary trained me on my very first job at Rose’s Westgate in 1966. Then she was a Candler Market when I moved to Candler. Many pairs of shoes passed thru her line at Discount Shoes, she always had a smile. Rest in Peace.
