Thank you for the gift of your life. Also for the gift of teaching me how to dance. Thank you for the privalidge of letting me take care of your wonderful mother. God bless you Rachel and Sarah. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
I met Mary my freshman year at Aquinas. She was two years older but was instantly friendly to all of us and made us feel welcome. When I think back to her, the image is always one of her smiling.
You will truly be missed Mary. Even though I only truly met you a couple of times, I will never forget your advice. You raised two beautiful daughters, who I am so very proud to say are my friends. May you rest in peace and dance amongst the clouds! xo
So many wonderful memories of Mary and our time together at Holy Family. My heart goes out to Mrs. Wamser, Mary’s daughters and the rest of her family. May you find comfort in your memories with Mary.
To the Family of Mary, I worked with Mary at MCC, and she was always a ray of sunshine. I will miss her energy and beautiful smile. May the Lord bless you and keep you at this difficult time. With thoughts and prayers. Sincerley, Tracy Archie
Mrs. Wamser, SJ, and Rachel, I am so sorry for your loss. The world is less bright today with the passing of Mary. Mary and her bright and sunny smile will live on in hearts and memories. my condolences, Julie
Maryl truly was a wonderful and talented lady with a great capacity for love. We were high school classmates, and my fondest memories were from Drama Club and acting in plays with her. She was a very gifted choreographer even back then, and I so enjoyed sharing that with her. She was very warm and kind to me, especially in the last couple of years, and I feel blessed having known her. My sincerest sympathies go out to her family. The world will be a little darker without her shining presence.
My sweet Mary, I long to hear your voice, to see your bright smile and to receive your loving hugs. You are the true meaning of friend and I am so glad you were in my life. You were the epitome of a doting and loving mom, a dedicated and compassionate daughter and a true friend who saw the good in everyone. You inspired and motivated me to be a better person. I have your smile embedded in my memory and it will help me to heal. I know you’re my Guardian Angel now and you are at peace. I love you soooooo much. Xoxoxo
Mary and I met our first year at St. Agnes High School. We were both 14 and going thru some hard times. We became extremely close that year. I think the both of us cried a river and held on to eachother for dear life. She was my rock and I never would have made it thru without her. She was always there for me. Kind, loving, strong, loyal. She was my very very best friend and we shared a special bond. When St. Agnes closed and we were going to be separated, it was heartbreaking. I went to Mercy and she to Aquinas. We kept in touch for years and just kind of lost touch after a while. We finally reconnected on FB about 6 years ago. I was so happy that I had found her again. I still have the IM messages that we sent back and forth. She was still the same Mary that I had always known and loved. I am so thankful that I had the chance to thank her for being there for me when I needed someone to help me thru life. She was always there for me. I will never forget her for that. She was truly a blessing and God sent in my life. Thanks again, Mary. I will see you in Heaven!!

Stringing words into sentences seems confining. I am not able to condense years of of “us” into any coherent order. My history is marked by the presence of you. We loved each other effortlessly and deeply. Such a connection is rare. I love you. I treasure you. I remember us.
Mary Wamser was one of the very first kisses I ever had (I am pretty sure I wasn’t her first). In fact, she was the very first Aquinas classmate I ever kissed. I was pretty shy but Mary wasn’t. She was a riot then just like she grew to be at 40+.
I last saw Mary at a breast cancer charity event about a year ago. Charitable sums her up pretty well as you can surmise by all the articles written about her since her death. We had a few drinks together at the event and spent a good amount of time laughing about the “good ol’ days.” I wish I had said more now. I wish we kept in touch.
You will always be that sweet, argumentative girl in English class raising your hand and making a point usually standing up for the underdog. I will always think of you that way and always did. Thank you for being in our lives, you affected us, changed us and became a part of who we would become.
We all have had our hearts broken over this tragedy. Mary’s infectious smile/grin could light up a room. SJ and Rachel, mom was so very proud of the two of you. She loved adored you both. No doubt, Mary is dancing up a storm in heaven with her dad.
Mary P was an incredible woman- selfless and loving. She was always smiling, always in a great mood and she could easily pass those things on to you with just a simple conversation. She was a wonderful mother, who taught both of her daughters to be strong and compassionate- she was so genuine and caring, it was hard to not see her as my own mother. I loved the times I spent in her kitchen, listening to her crazy stories and her simple yet wise advice. She will forever live on in our memories and through her daughter’s lives- Mary P will NEVER be forgotten.
Thinking of you all during this difficult time. Our thoughts and prayers go out to your family. Mary will be truly missed. Love,Luke and Lisa Wolf and family
The Performance” Unknown Author – The spotlight brightens The music begins I’m up on my toes as I twirl and spin I jump and I leap From one side to another feeling just the music never any other. I raise up in pointe then down in plie performing what I’ve practiced for so long every day. To dance is my dream, I can’t let it die for when I do dance I feel I can fly The world can disappear My troubles can cease For just one moment I am truly at peace. You will be truly missed ~
Mary, U will be missed very much.. We can remember growing up across the street from u. We having sleepovers at your house down in parents basement. My parents having home movies of the birthday parties in my backyard and us swinging on the swing set.. We going from my pool to ur pool…I will remember the car rides ur dad gave us to school and then u and I walking home from school.. The stories u and I could tell from that.. Also, I remember when we had dance contests in ur parents driveway and inviting all the boys from the neighborhood over…lol. Remember when we used to hang out at the basketball games at Holy Family. U always had a smile on ur face… We sitll can’t believe u are gone from us..
Thank you for the gift of your life. Also for the gift of teaching me how to dance. Thank you for the privalidge of letting me take care of your wonderful mother. God bless you Rachel and Sarah. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
