All the tears….again…! Your writing always goes straight to my heart ❤️

I know exactly what you’re feeling. Someone once said to me, what is your definition of home. It’s not a place, it’s the people. Home is where my people are….anywhere and everywhere ❤️❤️

AND……You finished your book…!!!!!!!

Wow….literally can’t wait to get my hands on it 😁

Well done, Mary! And not just the book, but life. Thanks for sharing your gift of storytelling that touches the heart and gives us pause. The images are stunning…and those Homerites…you had the perfect place for this phase, didn’t you? Enjoy Paris and come back HOME.

Can't wait for the book! But these individual stories are priceless. You make me want to be more ‘present’. To "enjoy the journey" as my bracelet says. I bought it when I was diagnosed with cancer in 2016. Give it to God and enjoy the journey....

Your mother would be so proud !

I never thought back when I served with your grandfather on the Town Planning Board that I would get to meet you and get to know you. I am very fortunate indeed.

In these crazy times it is good to know that you are out there shouting MORE GOOD !!!
