Fate introduced me to Mary by way of a simple "Roommate Wanted" ad placed in the Washington Post back in 1982. From the moment we met, we became close friends. We spent time with each others' families, double-dated with our future husbands, and had children who are still friends even now. We even had the same job! We shared a lot of adventures as our AF husbands' careers wound our paths back to each other over and over again. Fate again intervened when Mary was "retirement" househunting with the kids almost 20 years ago and suddenly a "For Sale" sign appeared in a neighbor's lawn. One of the BEST things that ever happened to us was when the Mraz family became our extended family who lived only 3 houses away. Mary has always been there for me - a true and honest friend who I could turn to for anything. We laughed, we gossiped, we crafted, we took care of each others' plants (Mary firmly believed that you need to talk to your plants). I cannot put into words how special Mary was to me. I miss her so much, every day, but I have so many happy memories with her to hold in my heart and to cherish. ... I feel so Blessed that she was a part of my life. Only 150 steps away.
