Mary’s love was always kind.
Those hands of hers worked all the time.
She was a caregiver in so many ways.
Took care of her family with Love and Praise,
the elderly, and children in her working days.
Her love in October was to process big game.
Made Christmas very special and sometimes insane,
there were lots of gifts for everyone who came.
The quilts she made were one of a kind.
Her hand-knit sweaters would blow your mind.
The beds she made were neat as a pin.
A house so spotless for all to come in.
Always ready for a party or a dance.
She prepared plenty of good food that was just first class.
You would even be offered your beer in a glass.
Mary’s in Heaven with George on this day!
Made it to 100 but too tired to stay.
A job well done in an Awesome Way!
Enjoy your new journey with family and friends.
We will see you one day when we meet again.
Thank you, mom!
Love You!

Mary was one of the first people I became acquainted with when I came to Sheridan in 1975. I helped her wrap meat in the little house behind her main home and in turn she taught me everything she knew about cutting up wild game. She was a wonderful lady with a ready smile and a quick wit. I’ll miss you Mary, thanks for everything. My sincerest condolences to her wonderful family. Yvonne Busse

I met Mary and George when John and I started dating. We always enjoyed visiting with them at their home. Still remember their back porch room with all the fun decor. We still have a quilt she made us for a wedding present. She was the best at butchering our wild game. So clean and well done. Mary was a special lady.
May she Rest in Peace.
