When Tim and I lived in Gruver, we became acquainted with Mary's mother and knew why Mary was ,also, such a lovely and warm friendly lady. May God's blessed assurance of everlasting life with the Lord ,our Savior, give you comfort and peace.

Sending our condolences to the whole family from your sort of cousins from Montana. Even though Uncle Walter passed away in 1945 we have always referred to your Mom as Aunt Mary Long. Our Mom and Dad, Mary Ann and Anton Johnson, always tried to make connections with Mary and David when they were in Texas, and we remember when they came to Montana to visit. Your Mom was always so happy and excited to see any of us. Maureen and I got to visit with her last year at Aunt Dorothy's funeral. She was a special person and we want you to know you are in our thoughts and prayers.

Lisa and family, my heart goes out to you at this time. Your mother was the epitome of the gracious southern lady, always smiling and always warm toward everyone she met. Your family was one of the first families that we met when we moved to Guymon in January 1962. You are in my prayers.

Guymon's Grande Dame has joined her many friends and loved ones. I have so many fond memories of her and can still see her at the Music Mart waiting for her kids to finish with their piano lessons. She and David were loved by my family and will always be amongst the best memories I have of the wonderful people of my childhood.

Native Americans say, "How can she truly be gone when she still walks in our hearts". Mary left deep footprints in many people's hearts. They will cherish their memories of her.
She will always occupy that special place in your heart you've reserved for her.
I wish you the peace to grieve and the warmth of her love and memory.

Mary was just fantastic… I have known her since I was 3 years old. She was always so happy and such a delight to be with. As a young girl, she would always make sure my hair and pony tails were just right and would always fluff my dresses to be perfect. Sometimes she would take me to my dance lessons and watch me perform. We have kept in touch over the years and I will always remember Mary as a very special lady in my life. She will be greatly missed.
