I have been blessed for the last 37 years to be a part of the Fagan family as Mary's daughter-in-law married to her oldest son Shelby.
Mary was a wonderful mother, grandmother and a friend to everyone. She was kind hearted and showed it somehow everyday.
There's one thing special that stands out in my mind of Mary, she was an excellent cook and every year during the holidays you could count on homemade candies, cookies, fudge and just about everything you could think of she was making it.
Shelby and I are deeply saddened by her passing, with prayers and love for the rest of the family. God bless
