To my sweet Grandma Mary I will cherish the time we had. Your smile lit up a room and your constant strength and will were astounding. Heaven just got brighter with you there. We love you very much and you will be sorely missed. May you now run free. And to my dear Grandpa, thank you for being a wonderful husband and caregiver. A love like yours can never be broken. May peace be with you.
May all family and friends be consoled by faith that GOD has a plan and purpose for each of us. God bless Aunt Mary Alice Mr.and Mrs.Andy Lee Snow III
Mary was a truly special woman. She represented all that`s good in the world. She was always an inspiration to me regarding her faith. She will be missed by many and I feel fortunate to have known her. Mary always had a sense of peace that she shared with everyone she came in contact with. I`m sure she`s watching over us now. Mary was truly one of god`s angels on earth and I`m sure she`s one in heaven now.

Marvin, We are saddened by the news of Mary. She was always so kind and caring. You were the best of neighbors on Mapleshade Lane. I can still picture my twin girls crossing into your yard to see both you and Mary. I am sorry for your loss but comforted that you two found each other and spent so many blessed and happy years together. Your friends William and Susan

Mary was a beautiful, anointed woman of God and those characteristics were shown through her when you met her. I was privileged to be with her and Marvin, her husband, in the women`s prison ministry. She was a lovely lady and a prayer warrior for the needs of my family or others in need. I will sorely miss her but I know she is whole and is walking the streets of Gold and awaiting her loved ones to come to know Christ as she knew him. She was my friend & Sister in Christ.
we are so sorry for the loss of Mary. God is very lucky to have Mary as a new angel.
