Hi Tony it’s Denise I want to offer my sincere condolences on the loss of Mary Kay. She was a friend and I will miss her dearly. Love Mike and Denise 💓
Tony and family,
Mary Kaye was a wonderful lady and always had a smile on her face. I originally met her over 45 years ago when her brother Mike was working for me. My first wife Carol passed away with the same problem, and all I could do was thank God for the wonderful years we had together. Sometimes, life is not fair, but at least we had a good share of some wonderful times. My prayers are with you and may God Bless you and the family.

Tony,
Thoughts and prayers to you and your family. The philosophy that helps me to his day after Kathy passed is a simple one. Whenever you are really missing Mary Kaye and feeling down just think of something you did with her that was a happy moment in your lives together. It will bring a smile to your heart and thank God for those moments.
