Dear Jonalyn, Bob, and Family,
Mary will always be near and dear to our hearts. We loved the time we were able to spend with her (and John and Margaret). She brought so much joy and love to everyone around her. What a wonderful person! She definitely enriched my life and I will never forget her. With love and prayers, Irene Cheatum

I have fond memories of Mary and times spent with her. She had a true joy of living and a wonderful sense of humor. She is missed.

I am so sorry for your loss.
I will always remember her fondly.
Jonalyn, you were an amazing loving daughter and I loved hearing about your ice cream trips!!

Message from Cathy Coffman Parrott

I am very sorry for your loss. I attended St Giles Presbyterian from it being originally built, met the Hammetts, Peace and Prayers to the family.

Message from Roger Andrews

My prayers and heart felt sympathy to all the family of sweet Mary. All of her church family here at St. Giles Presbyterian in Orange Park loved her very much. We missed her when 9she left us. She gave so much and expected only your friendship in return. Mary and my Beloved Kay were very close and now they are celebrating in Heaven. God now has two special angels.

Message from June Chandler

One of the sweetest and most gracious ladies I've ever known.
She is surely singing alto in Heaven's choir! Have missed her
so much since she left Florida. Know she will be greeted by
John and Margaret with loving arms.

Message from Bill and Shari Davis, Orange Park, FL

It was our privilege to know Mary and John through St. Giles for 14 years before she left to be with her family "up North". Prayers to her surviving family members, she was the most gracious of ladies.

Message from Jonalyn

To all the Dear Folks at St. Giles, You had a special place in Mom's heart. Although she was away from you, she was always with you in spirit. She often talked about you and how much fun she had in the choir, her "chicken-foot gang" who helped her so much after Dad's death, and of course Pastor Troy and his wife. Thank you all for caring. Many of you continued to send her cards and letters after her move up here to Delaware. She kept every one.

Message from Ron and Patti Papineau

Dear Jonalyn, Bob and family,
It was always a pleasure to have your mother with us on luncheons. Her smile is one of her treasures. I know she loved ice cream. Memories are also treasures. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family at this time.
Ron and Patti

Dear Jonalyn, Bob, and family
We love the picture of your mom. She looks so kind and beautiful. Wish we had met her and got to know her. After reading her obituary, we feel we know her better. We know what this dear person meant to you. We join with you in celebrating her life. May you mother, Mary Edith Grace, enjoy the rewards of her earthly labors in her new heavenly home! Sincere condolences, Mary Frances, Jack Gould and Barbara Borrell
