I was away for the weekend and just saw the posts on the list about Mary. Mary and I did not know each other well - we corresponded several times via e-mail. I know Gail a bit better - but as a 1 ½ year cancer survivor, my heart goes out to others who fought the good fight and lost. Mary was very lucky to have someone like Gail to love and support her on her journey. My heart breaks for them both...
