I’m sorry for the loss of your mother, I don’t know you but new Mary when she worked at the Holy Rosary Hospital. She was so nice and polite and I remember her makeup and hair was done very neatly. I worked as a unit maid with Angie Hagel, I don’t remember the years but she worked there a long time. I sure miss her. I know you will remember the memories of your mom and God Bless You………………….Jeannette

So sorry to hear of the passing of your mother. She worked for many, many years with my Mom – Dolores Jablinske. I know they are now back together again in heaven, causing mischief for sure! Such great nurses!! They worked hard, yet knew how to have fun and relieve the stress when needed.
Please know that you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.

Dear family and friends of Mary Marie Ringland – I’m so sorry to hear of your loss. May God give you peace and comfort through his sure promises to end pain, mourning and death (Revelation 21:4). Almighty God also promises to fulfill our desires, not just our needs (Psalms 145:16). Cherish all the happy memories of Mrs. Ringland and be comforted by the Bible promises (John 17:3).

Jackie and Stepf, So sorry to hear about your mom but what a long and wonderful life she had. I remember her with fond memories. She was my first boss and a total sweetheart. Here’s a laugh for you. She was in the Met to see your dad one day when I went there. She saw me and hollered out at me “Cooky, I didn’t recognize you with your clothes on” She ment without my uniform but it sure got the attention of the people in the café.
We laughed about that for ages. I’m sure she’ll be missed by many. Wonderful sweet lady! Steph- keep a good eye on those grandkids. They are part mine too you know!! Love to all of you.
