To Amy, I was shock that your beautiful sister had transitioned to a place of love and peace. Whenever I saw you at Publix I would always ask about her. May her Life be A Blessing
So sorry to hear about the passing of Mary. I have known her since childhood. She will be missed. Rest in peace Mary.
Oh no, not again so soon Amy! I am just seeing this. Please accept my sincere condolences in, yet another loss in your family.
Still, I am so grateful to know that you are rooted and grounded in the Word!! In times like these, that is what it takes for us to get through these turbulent times. Please know that I would have been there for you, had I known sooner. But even now, I am offering up prayers for your continued strength. If there is anything else that I can do to make things better, please don’t hesitate to call. Know that you are loved, appreciated and will be continually supported in prayer.
Your friend and classmate,

To the family
May you all find peace in this time of heaviness of your hearts. Mary (Hollywood was her nickname from me) and I were friends forever. Whenever we saw each other, it was hugs and smiles. We share many great teenage moments and memories. Hollywood and I were making plans to do lunch about two weeks ago and we didn’t get together. I will always cherish our last phone conversation when we both remembered things from our past that made us laugh so hard that our sides hurt. I am so grateful to God that we had that time which I will add to my wonderful memories of our time together through teenage years to adulthood. Rest peacefully my friend. I will miss you.
My condolences are with the Benefield family during this difficult time. Ms. Mary will be greatly missed, but her precious memories will be cherished forever!
I’m going to miss u mary louise Rip
