I'm sending my heartfelt condolences to Mary's loved ones. My Dear Mary, "Sarah Bernhart", "May-Ree" and all the other endearments she was known by through the years. I will miss her precious voice, and sense of humor. We've shared so many fond memories since our high school years, and kept in touch through letters, email and phone conversations. Now that she's joined her family in Heaven, I'm feeling torn between "Our " loss and being grateful that she's in a much better place. I imagine her free of all discomfort and moving effortlessly, fluidly and gracefully like a swan with its wings lifted. "Fly Mary . . . Fly!" Sincerely, Helen "Jet-Ski"
