Thank you Rick for this beautiful tribute to Mary, for loving her with all of your mind, body, and soul and for including all of us in these last 20 months. It has been a truly beautiful and bittersweet experience. I think it helped to strengthen the faith of all who came in contact with Mary and yourself. Thank you so much for everything.

Mary you have been a ball of sunshine & brought the joy of everblooming flowers 🌸 to our spirits as our neighbors. Your authentic love for the Lord has been inspiring. You will be missed & will live on both in Heaven & in our memories. 💚Tara, Kaia, & Drew Howard
Our angel is at last in peace without pain. I know your journey was a long one but I loved her attitude and trust in God. She had a wonderful support group here on earth and we shall continue to support you and your family with prayers of comfort and love.
So beautifully said, Rick. I am so sorry for your loss. I am so thankful you two were able to make Phoenix one of your stops on your road trip this last spring. It was so good to see her smiling face and it was just like old times. I will always treasure that.
So sorry to hear that Mary lost her earthly battle, but rejoice that she has just begun her heavenly life. She was a dynamic person with an unchecked optimism. Thanks for sharing her journey here on caringbridge. I hope her encouraging words and strength inspires someone else.
Thoughts and prayers are with you and your family Rick. Mary's light shined bright, and will carry on in your hearts. May you find Peace at this difficult time.
Mary was one of the greatest person that I have ever met. She always brought joy to those around her. She will be missed greatly by everyone.
I can't imagine your loss Rick. You, the kids and the grandkids are in my thoughts.
Mary, we miss you.
