I worked with Liz at the Holiday Inn in the '70's. They were the best of times, Liz was a hard worker and always did it with a smile and lots of laughs. I was shocked when I read her obituary - gone way to soon. Sorry I could not make the calling hours to speak with her family. Anyone who knew Liz, she made you feel like family. May she rest in peace in the arms of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
My sincerest condolences to her family.
Linda Mead

I moved to Columbus, Ohio back in 1993 but, I do remember Mary and her sweet kindness and beautiful smile! My Mom (Margaret Randall) actually worked with Mary at the Cortland Co. Nutrition Program and I remember how wonderful a friend Mary was to my Mom. My thoughts and prayers are with all of Mary's family and friends at this difficult time.

Mary was such a beautiful soul who radiated kindness. I remember going on a Finger Lakes Wine tour with her & her Sister Pat (who I worked with at Buckbee). At the time, she had a friend from Scotland visit her (Liam or Ian). We stayed at a motel in Geneva, NY during our tour and had the greatest time :) My condolences go out to her family :)

I was so sad to read of Mary's passing. She had a kind & funloving soul. It was always a great pleasure to run into her and talk with her.
There is another angel in heaven now. RIP Mary.

I was shocked when I saw Liz's obit. I worked with her for many years at the Holiday Inn. She became a good Friend. We always had a fun time when we worked together. As always in Life we went our separate ways. I did see her last year at the Eye Drs., she never lost her humor. She is called what a real Friend is. My condolences to all her Family. Love you Liz, may you Rest In Peace, you will be missed by many.

I am so very sorry to learn of Mary's passing. Yes, she was all you have described in her obituary and more. I knew Mary through Groton Head Start when she was the cook there. But our friendship didn't stop there. We had some good social times together and she always had a happy greeting for me, and that great laugh! My thoughts and prayers are with you all. She will be missed. Marilyn Miller

My great memories of Mary remain with me to this day. We worked together years ago at ASC (SUNY CORTLAND). She was a hard working employee who also shared information on how to do everything right and have fun doing so. Mary was a wonderful happy soul and I always enjoyed her presence. She touched a lot of lives and my memories of her will reside in my heart. Thanks so much Mary.
