Sam, Sarah, and family. So sorry to hear of "grandmother's" passing away. Landen talked of her often, and would tell us of their escapades. We came to know about her caring nature from him. I know you will miss her terribly as will he. We will keep your family in our thoughts and prayers during this time.

My mom, Nancy Seely, and I, will always remember Mary for her many talents and caring ways. She could play the organ and piano with such beauty and grace that you knew you were sharing in the company of greatness. When my brother Mark passed away unexpectedly, Mary answered our call for help when our family was lost in turmoil. Had she not been a part of the loss of Mark, our family tragedy would have encountered serious problems when it came to closing arrangements. Mary stepped in and handled all of the music arrangements that included providing the singer whose solo of "Amazing Grace" was phenomenal. We will always cherish Mary in our hearts for the way she helped our family in a time of need. Our sympathy and love go out to all family members who know that someone special will be missed dearly.
