With deepest sympathy to Mary's family. We were in school together at CSC & became good friends. She was my maid-of-honor when George & I were married by a justice of the peace in Rostraver. We were invited to her & Nick's wedding. Mary was a wonderful & unique person. I called her "Marushka" & we made jokes about the polish tradition of throwing walnuts at people ! Mary, I will miss your Christmas cards. Tell my Mom hello for me when you see her in heaven!

Nick and Alexandra, you have our deepest, heartfelt sympathy.
I worked with Mary for over 16 years as her secretary/assistant. Mary was a great teacher/mentor/friend to me. One of the most compassionate, sincere "tell it like it is" kinda person I know. You will truly be missed. Rest in Peace my dear friend.
