Mary Ann was always smiling; she was quick to express her Christian faith. She will be missed.

Melissa and all the family, I'm so sorry to hear about your mother. I remember both your parents so well from St. Andrews days. Before your dad passed away, they visited the Red Apple and I was thrilled to see them again after so many years. I always admired both of them. Our prayers are with you and hope your memories of your parents will stay with you the rest of your life.

Dear Glenn Family: It breaks our hearts when death separates us from the ones we love. The Bible reminds us that God sees our pain and grief and has promised that soon death will be done away with....swallowed up forever.(Isaiah 25:8) He will heal our broken hearts by resurrecting our precious loved ones to life again.(Acts 24:15) I hope the memories of Mary and these promises from God will comfort you in the days to come.
