Our deepest condolences to your family. Mary & Dale are our neighbors. Whenever we needed anything you always knew Mary was just a phone call away. Oh Mary, you will so be missed from the neighborhood to your always smiling,cheerful, helpfulness, at the bank. Your station will never be the same. God must have needed you more than we did!
