I always held Mary in the highest regard. My first long conversations occurred the year that she and Gail got "Caterpillar." I so wanted to steal that little puppy. Every so often, I would open my e-mail to a new picture of Caterpillar and stories of her and Guido. Mary was a gracious lady and one hell of a "broad." I loved her and will miss her. My most sincere sympathies to Gail. She and Bungee are together again and await their soul mate.
