It’s not so much that the lady I called Mrs. Pike or Mrs. Johnson touched my life, it’s that she touched the lives of so many people with a compassion and kindness so rare it hardly seems of this world. And if you step back and see the strength underlying that humanity you’ll have glimpsed something extraordinary, and your faith in the decency of people, in the goodness of this life, will be strengthened. I wouldn’t presume to say I knew her (though I learned from her), but to her family and friends, I know Mary lives on deep inside your hearts and for that we are all grateful.
With love,
Rich, Donna and Madeline Cardone
