So sorry to hear of your mom’s passing. Only met your mother briefly one time but she left a lasting impression. Very sweet, friendly lady. May the beautiful memories you have made help at this time.
Keith, Rick, Chris, Keith Jr and families:
My thoughts are with all of you as you grieve the loss of your wife & mother ( respectetively). I remember Mary as a dedicated wife & mother, so proud of her boys. I remember her playing cards when them, teaching them to play Scat & Crib, you boys were great mathematicians!
She supported her husband & made fish cakes every fall for the big hunters. Mary always had a cup of very weak tea in her hand & was quick to offer hospitality to any and all drop ins. She enjoyed people, had a warm smile, quick laugh and a kind heart. She will be missed & remembered fondly,
To the family of Mary Pope
Our sincere condolences to you all at this sad and difficult time.
Mary was always kind to me as a young girl,and had a warm, caring smile.
Rest in Peace Mary.

To Keith and the O’Brien and Pope families
I was very sorry to hear of Mary’s passing. It wasn’t long ago that I ran into her at St. Clare’s Hospital. As always, she was friendly and asked how I was doing and the rest of our family. That’s how I always found Mary to be – pleasant and kindhearted and always with a smile. May she rest in peace and may her memory stay in your hearts forever.
