A loving mother and sister, so gentle and kind,What a wonderful memory she left behind.Long days, long nights, she bore her pain.To wait for a cure, but all in vain.Till God himself knew what was best,He took her home and gave her rest.
God saw the road was getting roughAnd the hills were hard to climb,So he closed her weary eyelidsAnd whispered “Peace be thine”.You’re free from your pain and turmoil, we know Jesus has his arms around you now carrying you and telling you “I will bear your pain now my child. Rest.”A private memorial service will be held at the convenience of the family.In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be sent to Heller Funeral Home, LLC, 633 East Third Street, Nescopeck to help with Mary’s final expenses.Online messages of comfort can be sent to condolences@hellerfuneral.com
