Mary was a special lady and a big supporter of Betsy Layne Elementary FRYSC. She made a difference in many of our students lives during Christmas for many years.

Mary was a fantastic nurse. She and her husband Palmer both worked at PMC for years. I can’t even guess how many nurses she trained. I’m so sorry she passed and offer my prayers for her family.

One of the nicest Christian ladies I ever knew. She was always friendly and gracious to everyone. I believe she has went home to rest from her labors now. I am glad I was privileged to know her for about 20 years and that she was my sister in Christ. Goodbye old friend.... Continue Reading

I worked with Mary when I first started on Obstetrics. She was a no nonsense old school nurse. She was a wonderful person and excellent nurse. I’m so sorry to hear of her passing.

I worked at PMC with her, she was a good nurse. When I decided to move back to Florida, we found out that her brother in law had a restaurant in my home town. “Paul’s Smokehouse”. We were both tickled by that. RIP Mary.
