| My family and i were looking through the newspaper and noticed that you lost a loved one. Knowing that this is a sad period of time,we felt the need to share some comforting scriptures with you.The death of a loved one can cause a deep sense of loss. Many want to know why we die,where are the dead,or will we ever see our dead loved ones again?The Bible gives a very comforting promise.John5:28,29 assures us"that the hour is coming when all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out." Please,take a moment to think about that.Would you agree that,that will be a time of great joy?We are a group of volunteers sharing in a work being done in over 235 lands. I engage in this work because i am genuinely interested in my neighbors. It is my hope that someday soon i will be able to talk to you personally.Please feel free to contact me at ayana.sunshine81@yahoo.com |

| She was an inspiration to anyone who knew her. She was the kind of person that we all strive to be, and the kind of person that we all hope to become. She touched so many lives but mine most of all. She was my Mom and my best friend, and she will never be forgotten. I love her dearly and I am blessed to have shared my life with such an exceptional person. |

If you were there…..
You saw it….
When her precious babies were born
There you see it…
When she married the only love God could give
There you see it…
When her seed continue to grow through the birth of her grandbabies
There you see it…
When you mention casino, slot machine, or scratch offs
There you see it…
If she WON
There you really see it…
When she planned your birthday party, baby shower, or wedding shower
There you see it…
When she bought gifts to donate to others for Christmas
There you see it…
When she assists you with contributors for your kid’s fundraiser
There you see it. ..
When she’s chatting with the girls and say, “I have a good husband.”
There you see it…
When Chance bowled his first strike
There you see it….
My favorite of all:
It is a little after 5 at work and her loving husband Richard is waiting at the door looking down the hall waiting for Mary. Everyone is coming but her. Just when he is about to go back to his office and wait…. here comes Mary…looking at her husband.
There you see it….
My prayer for those who miss her presence is that every time you think of Mary
There you see it…..The capture of Mary’s SMILE.
God Bless.

I am blessed to have called Mary a friend. Her life demonstrated love, courage, determination and a strong will. The impact she has left here at NCI will never be forgotten. Slowly it’s being revealed all the many hats she wore while never missing a beat.
Richard and Heather thanks for that special lunch - giving us a chance to say goodbye. Your family will continue to be in my prayers. Remember earth has no sorrows that heaven cannot heal…….

| I can not tell you how many times Mary helped me manage so many things from sending drawings when they were not supposed to go to getting color chips sent to Long Bay clients, and she always made me pay for stamps! I also will not forget the casino trips that Richard and Mary put together for the staff. It showed how much they valued their team relationships outside of work and this gave the chance for a lot of people to shed the stigma of the office and just have fun. Even though Mary will be missed, I will always remember the good that she brought to NCI and her smile will live with us for a very long time. |

| In 1994 Mary and I worked at Michaels Arts and Crafts on Hwy 290 in Houston Texas. We became friends and our friendship continued after we both started working at NCI Building Systems. Mary was the most thoughtful, giving person that I have ever met. I loved her as a sister. I will always carry her in my heart. |

From print room to executive assistant - Mary did it!
Whenever we could not get something done we called on Mary. Mary would either do it herself or knew who to call on to help us.
I am sure those of us inside and outside the office will soon learn of the many things that Mary did for us that we were not even aware of.
I pray that we may be as giving and supportive to your family as Mary was to us.
God bless! |

God Bless... Deb |

Ecclesiastes 7:1
[ Wisdom ] A good name is better than fine perfume, and the day of death better than the day of birth.
Ecclesiastes 7:2
It is better to go to a house of mourning than to go to a house of feasting, for death is the destiny of every man; the living should take this to heart.
My prayers for the family at this time of great loss. Mary was a caring sister and loving mother. Her inspiring kindness will be greatly missed in my life.
I love you Mary, God will keep you till we meet again. |

Mary -
God saw you getting tired, and a cure was not to be. So He put His arms around you and whispered "Come to ME". With tearful eyes we watched you, and saw you pass away. Although we love you dearly, we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best.
