I’m so sorry to hear that my dear cousin Mary passed away. After months of family research I was so excited to locate her. Although we never had the opportunity to meet in person, I will always cherish her memory and the phone calls we shared. My heart and prayers go out to Helen, Yvette and Jarred. May God comfort and strengthen you now and always. Many thanks to Helen Nickie for sharing family photos and memories and staying in touch.
