I remember Mary as a child and her parents who had run and I think owned the bowling alley in Yellow Springs. Her parents were super great and supportive of her, and although there was almost a 5 year gap in our ages, I remember Miss Camilla bringing her to our home so she would have other children to play with. When your young, you don’t immediately know a difference; she’s just another kid. She is in Gods memory.
