Ms. Mary, was always so kind and nice to me. I remember being so nervous when Bryant and I drove down to visit so I could meet Ms. Mary for the first time. I didn’t want to disappoint, but I also wanted to impress her, because at that time in my life, I loved her son. And she knew that I did. She knew exactly where my heart was and she never doubted me and appreciated that I did. I will always be grateful from the bottom of my heart to Ms. Mary for always making me feel apart of her family. Ms. Mary, I hope you and Bryant are dancing together like there is no tomorrow and that you are both at peace. I love you both!
