Mary Ellen was like a second Mother to me, esp. in my 20's and 30's. A very strong and caring woman who loved people.She was a great listerner and friend to many people who needed help. Her greatest love of all was God and she served him fervently. She made a big impact in this world for the Lord!! And right now she is dancing and singing on the streets of gold! You will be missed Mary! But I gotta say you are in a much better place than we all are right now, until we meet again..............Love Ya, Kathy
