Today we say until we meet again to a long time friend and wife of my cousin Chuckie. His wife Mary Ann died last Friday. I have known her for over 50 years...Chuckie brought her by my parents home to meet us when they were dating.
Mary Ann was a good friend, she volunteered for me at the Museum for several years....it was a day out for her. Mary Ann had bronchiectasis and she fought frequent infections.
She will be remembered fondly and missed by many especially her husband, daughter and her twin grandchildren.
Far Side
“So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal.” 2 Corinthians 4:16-18
I am so sorry.
