Deb Overton wrote a sympathy message

“I had the pleasure of working with Mary at Jefferson High School and serving on a number of school committees. She was such committed teacher, cared deeply about the students she taught, and was the ultimate professional. Mary taught me so much during the time we worked together and I’m sure she will be dearly missed by her family, friends, and those that had an opportunity to know her. With sincere sympathy, Deb Overton”
