Mary was my first girlfriend while we attended Medway HS. Never forget the time her family included me on their curling team. Unfortunately we were short one person so I had to sweep twice at each end. It was my first & last game, still hurts. She made me laugh all the time. Also many great football games with Clair. Great memories to hold on to. Prayers for the family.
