I remember Mary as mother's very kind cheerful friend. I also remember a happy summer holiday where we shared a cottage at Victoria Beach with Mary and her niece, June. I am very sorry for your loss and I am glad to have known Mary when I was a girl. - Posted by: Louise Bellhouse (my mother, Evelyn Budnick, was a good friend of Mary's.) on: Oct 06, 2015
