I have known Mary Ellen from the Horizon’s in Bonita Bay. She was a gracious woman who loved her family especially her grandchildren and great grandchildren. She loved to do her 1000 piece puzzles and many were framed in her Florida home. As a friend, she was caring and loved life. May she Rest In Peace.
We are so sorry for your loss. We continue to send love and prayers to your family.
Thinking of you often.
Skip and family
Sincere condolences to you and your family.
