Mary lived with a heart full of love for the Lord and those around her. She gave freely and selflessly, always with joy and warmth. A dear friend to all, her caring smile and unwavering love for her family will never be forgotten. As a proud Nana, she cherished every moment with her grandchildren. Her spirit, strong and enduring like her favorite magnolia tree, was rooted in love, blooming with kindness, and always offering comfort to all near her. Mary's legacy is one of love, faith, and joy. Her kindness and strength will be deeply missed but forever cherished in the hearts of all who knew her.
