How wonderful and beautiful that Mary lay down and go to eternal rest. No fuss, no struggle. Kind of the way she always did things. The loss is profound, but we pray that comfort be found in remembering the peace at which she was taken home. Many are waiting for her, and there will be a grand reunion! Mary once told our family that her brother, Peter often used to call her to pick him up in the "wee hours." I can't help but think that when the twins are reunited, he'll have some wisecrack about waiting for her. May she rest in eternal peace. May God grant all of you comfort and peace in the wonderful memories of this hard-working, loving, fiercely loyal, truly remarkable woman. Somehow, I feel that South Orange will never be the same. Godspeed, Mary.
