    Nana, you will be missed by us all. I loved how you called me "Your 50th Birthday present". I am honored and privileged to have such a caring and loving individual. Whether watching us grow, summers at the pool, or spritz cookies during the holidays you always cared. You accepted my husband Chris into the fold and treated him like family. Its been a blessing to have you around while Pyper & Jeremy have grown these past few years, they will truly miss their Nana. Everywhere you go you spread your kindness and love. You weren't just a Nana to us but to every life you touched. People like you are a rare find, and although you join Pa in heaven I know that both of you will be looking down on us. We shall cherish your memories and keep your spirits alive always. The Goguen family sends its love to you and want you to know how special it has been having you in our lives. Thank you. Love, Amy Montgomery Goguen

    Mary (Nana) was a bright light in everyone’s lives she touched. She was the nicest and kindest person you could ever meet. I remember she always had a smile, a kind word and pleasant conversation for everyone she spent time with. My family and I are honored to have known her. We know she is with Pa now, peaceful and happy. Our prayers and support go out to the Montgomery Family. Thank you for giving us the privilege of knowing Nana. Love, The Torres/Goguen Familyâ€"Mary, Jesus, Alanna and Margarita
