This is a truly amazing woman. She was as committed and excited about doing a good job after 32 years as she was on her first day. Senator Hatch could not have had a more committed, loyal supporter and employee. This is a virtuous woman with ethics galore. She always finds the best in people. I have never heard her say a bad word about anyone. I am so happy that The columnist found time to write about this "unsung hero" People don't come along like her very often. If the world was filled with people like Mary, it would be a much beter place. She is the best!!!! My whole family has benefited from knowing her. She's my best friend. We are so lucky to have our Aunt Mary!!
Lee Benson, thank you for this well deserved and well earned acknowledgement.

and she is my best friend!

She really is, I would not be the man I am today if it was not for the example she set.
