Missing my Mom
Mom, thanks for all the memories, I miss you so much. Mary Ellen
Wonderful memorial service tonight for Mary Ethelynn Boyd, widow of Colonel John Boyd, mother of Mary Ellen Boyd, and grandmother of Rebah Holton. She lived a life of love and we celebrate her memory tonight. Thank you Ron Furgerson and thank you family for planning and carrying out a beautiful service.
I remember Mary as smiling and happy. Glad to be with family and friends. Tonight, I learned that she was also a tap dancing granny. What a great message to take home with me about this wonderful woman.
Marian Bruce Bliznik: Some people come into our lives and quickly go..You leave your beautiful "Bruce" smile on our hearts and we are changed. Aunt Mary, you are a wonderful example to all of us with the life you created and lived. We will miss you until we meet again..Matthew's Daughter
Mary - my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this difficult time. May the peace of the Lord be with you.
I truly miss you, you are a wonderful mother. Words cannot express my sorrow with your leaving this realm but I know you are in a far better place; you have joined Dad and Steve. I know they were happy to see you again. Our time will come when we will meet again and I will treasure all the memories I have of you until then. Love you, your daughter, Mary Ellen.
Although my time with Mary was short it was a privilege to know her ... God Bless you, Miss Mary.
I did not know Mary as well as I would have liked. I do know that she had a dignified bearing and was comfortable to be with. She had a great smile and adored her husband and children. It was an honor knowing her and to be with her during her final fleeting moments on this side of eternity.
