Condolence From: Lynda McLean
Condolence: Oh Mary Oh Mary—
I can’t believe this. Last time we were together Ian was born and I visited u at home. Dear Mary: u were my rock, the year I taught at St Mary’s. Your easy going manner meant so much to me. Even after leaving the school we often had lunch together until u moved the Upper Stewiacke. Mary u meant an awful lot to me. All my love to u Dear Mary, Lynda

Condolence: Having lived in Australia for almost 40 years how do you maintain a friendship with someone you met in residence in 1968? Well with Mary it was easy. Each time we met up whether it was Toronto, Montreal, Washington, Newfoundland, Melbourne, Halifax or Florida, it was always as though we were still in Murray House, Fredericton. She was the same down to earth, game for anything (except with food)and genuinely interested in everything and everyone. I can't imagine going back to Canada and not seeing her. It has been a very sad week for me but so so painful for you - John, Katie, Ian and Meg. My deepest condolences and cherish all those wonderful memories. Certainly I will. Robyn Alexander

Condolence: Sorry to hear of Mary's illness and passing. I got to know Mary mainly when her mother Peggy Lawson was at Williams Nursing Home. I brought Communion to Peggy during that time and would speak to Mary and her sister when they were visiting her. They were both so nice and appreciative of this ministry to Peggy. Mary always gave the nicest cards on occasions and showed such love for her mom. My thoughts and prayers and sympathies go out to you John and to all your family. I know she will be very missed and remembered always. She will be greeted by her mom and dad in heaven,I am sure. God Bless you all.

Condolence: John and Family,
I was so saddened to hear of Mary's passing. We were great childhood friends from the time her family moved from Ontario to Saint John West. We enjoyed riding ponies together. I am so very sorry for your loss.

Condolence: John and loving family; i was truly shocked when Mary’s passing was shared with me. I did not know of the struggles.

So sorry I did not reach out sooner. I think of Charlie and Don at these times also; makes no sense. 😔

Our families/children shared so many wonderful moments woven through you and Mary. The mixed Vball fun as one example but just one of many.

I really don’t have the words. Our whole family is mourning this loss. I know my own children who were especially close to Ian and Meg are heartbroken.

Please know that our love for you all is flowing with hugs and prayers.

We were all blessed by Mary.

Thanks for sharing her ❤️
